Happy Birthday SmokeShow!!
- Thread starter Poltergeist
- Start date
Thanks folks. Went out last night. Went to nice seafood restaurant, then over to a comedy club featuring Kevin pollack then off to a club/bar to continue the party. It was a pretty good time. Kevin had good impercinations but wasn't the funniest thing I've ever heard. Good time tho.
A gift to myself is the convertion of the 83 is finally starting next week!!! Woo hoo!!!! Have decided to utilize the 06 chassis & swap the 83 body onto it. It's just a better platform with stronger frame, all the drivetrain bolts in and body mounts are gonna be easier to fab up than engine & trans mounts & heavily stiffening the 83 frame. Just seems like a no brainer really. So with any luck, the body swap should be done in ~10-14 days!!
A friend is doing most the work in exchange for some parts off the donor.
I just can't hardly believe it's really about to take a huge step towards being converted! It's been two years in the planning & collecting parts (doing it with no debt and extra cash only so it takes me a while to accumulate parts) so it's wild that the ol' yard ornaments are finally getting some love!!!
Later guys! :beer
