    Project car for Mental

    Since you weld and I don't, perhaps you can build one of these projects.

    Take the body of a civic and the heart of a corvette. Freaking frankenstien! He says it does 10.7 or so in the quarter mile. His avatar is pretty funny looking.

    Wow. I had a buddy in OK that put a 76 Firebird driveline in a Prelude, but no where near that awesome.

    Dallas is the resident welder and GSXR Scott is very talented as well, and Bash won;t bragg but he knows his way around one as wel. I can weld in the since that the metal stays where it was put, but its like driving a nail with your forehead, it takes a while and you don't want to watch.

    I'm just the resident nutcase that like doing wierd stuff to cars.
    GSXRScott made me follow him into that corner,...down that hill...there was the time up that washout...crankcase alley...man I gotta stop following him.

    That may very well be (and good to know ) but Mental and I have had many chats about several different projects and several different ways to build a project race car. Budget style.

    And the impressive thing was the guy got both of the cars and was able to keep his budget pretty low until he started buying go-fast parts.

    The last time you said that it involved me dressing up like Little Bo Peep...

    FYI, if anyone in interested, my buddy in Detroit is a little worried about his security right now, and is getting rid of his projects. To include the mighty V8 944
