Ty gents...

Cap I won't be seeing any daylight under the fronts with this one...  ;)  but...with 3:23's and the 3 speed hand shaker...it's got a bit of sitback...when stomped on.  Fun ice cream getter for the wife and I...and red light to red light fun for me and the kid.

Ink...It does not have the, I'm gonna bite your face off...growl, or the endless top end like the Charger...but I'm happy with it.  Someday I'll find the right 68/69 Charger.  Of course...I'll need to start playing the lotto or something for that.

Thanks again.  A lot went into this one.  Pics don't really do it full justice.  I'm happy to just bring another one back...enjoy it a bit...then let someone else enjoy it...and move on to the next project. 

Cars...a sickness.

I do know what you mean...hated putting it up for the winter.  In the short time I had to drive it this year...I enjoyed it a whole lot.  Much smaller and lighter package than the Dodge was.  Reminds me most of the 71 small block Barracuda I had a long time ago.  Tight and light...a good feel of the road and a whole bunch easier to stop.  ;)

I know, I know... After so many mopars...the time seemed right to do one of the few other types I always wanted.  Yes it gets all the looks. Can't go anywhere with it.

Sometimes you need to step away to realize why you really love the things you do.  :aok  Someday...somehow I'll have the RR/Charger Cuda/Challenger...that will be the one I finally keep.  This bird is way cool but...it's no end all for me.  ;)

Hajo will have to have my membership card reinstated someday...I am certain.

LOL you never lost it my friend!   Nice job on the Firebird.  It's a looker.  You always had great taste in muscle cars. I owned a Trans Am at one point also.
Liked it a lot!

My new SRT 6.4.   470HP/470 TQ.

Didn't have much time to drive it this past summer.  Got some parts to put on though before spring gets here.

my Cherokee is off the road and I cant afford to fix it or insure it right now...so...




I walked 17 miles straight to get home a few weeks ago. Started at midnight after a long day with manual work and got home at 4.45am. The last few miles were seriously taxing but the experience was very enjoyable.

No buses at midnight and a cab rude would have cost £25 minimum, I'd rather walk
