Grew up in the 60s drag racin on the street. The days where a guy would say "i got a 1/8 mile car, thats what I run" so my dad would be in the driveway droppin a different trans into his car the day before. He was a Corvette man thru and thru. He actually went thru the windshield of his friends Vette at one point and bounced off the pavent quite a bit before comin to a stop. He was read his last rights in the hospital, but made it anyway. He always joked that when he died I would buy a Lamborghini or something ridiculous with his money, so the way I recieved it sorta prevented me from doing so, not that I would have. Ive been a life long Z lover, owned many. My 370 was part of a healing process. My father and I were always talkin bout cars, one thing we really had in common. We never got to do a project car together and he never got to get his Vette back befote he passed. My Z project is dedicated to him. Oh and he was a total "do it yourself guy and use the right damn tool!" kinda guy. So I make sure I personally spin all the wrenches
That sucks man, but kind of cool.
