It sure is. 1963, bagged, ghost flames and shaved.

The sled on the ground is getting a meth kit installed.

On another note, it looks like I will have to rebrand myself again. This time however, should be for a good reason

( Click to show/hide )
A little background: in Oct 2012 I quit working for the company that my father and a former co-worker of mine started in Jan 2012 because the former co-worker called me on the phone and talked to me like I was his 2 year old child. I called him out on it immediately, and fortunately, I was in a position to simply leave the company and retain all of my work on my own and pay my own salary.

Fast forward to today: my father informs me that he is going to be bought out (something we didn't think the guy would actually be willing to do) in the immediate future and will start up another firm for his consulting. I will be joining the new team, and hopefully bumping my salary by taking on additional, higher paying work

It will probably take the next month or so to work out all the details, and we'll probably be in the same office until the end of the summer. However, I am for the potential opportunities this change will offer

Short answer... Soon.

Long answer,

That's what I'm working on next. This shop actually has a proper paint shop they are going to give me a quote. If that fails there is a local shop that said will do it. I plan on getting the kit ready for paint by next week and then over to one of the painters.

Looking in good Gale! Let us know how it sounds once the exhaust is done maybe a sound clip?


My buddy is trying to convince me to use a guy in our area that does SS exhausts and just do one from a custom shop. He says it will be cheaper and same sh!t etc. which I agree. He is a long time friend and he's mechanic and helps me out all the time! So it's hard not agree with him as he is normally right...... he knows I like the bare minimum for exhaust just some mufflers, no res. So it leaves me thinking I should just F*ing do it! rather then waiting to get a "brand name" one
