  1. My dreams are all dead and buried Sometimes I just wish the sun would explode When God comes and calls me to his kingdom I'll take all you sonsabitchs with me when I go Billy joe Shaver, Squidbillys theme song
  2. I'm thankful for my shop, tools and some jackstands to put my Z ON. Short block rebuild, diff. upgrade, tranny upgrade and whatever other fun things I need to do why I'm there. No snow tires this year.
  3. Send grumpy a blank check, tell him to go nuts. has to be streetable, kinda,somewhat.
  4. That's a familiar poise. Great start, first steps down a long and bumpy road, there's a big smile at the end. Nice lift.
  5. None of the above, Metal Budweiser or any other beer?
  6. Rice burners with american muscle. gota loveit
  7. Set them on two wood blocks about 1 1/2 ft. apart. lean against the wall upright as possible but sure they won't fall over, back glass first, protect were it touchs the wall. it's tempered and pretty tough unless you bang a corner on the floor. put the windshield next with somthing soft between them. I'd cover them with plywood.
  8. I got a couple of pennies too. 1- There's some smart people here, 2-Communication is key, know the problem, get a plan. If a second job is the answer, that's fine. If a second job is to support a out of contol lifestyle, that opens a can of ugly little worms.
  9. That big red compressor in the corner and HybridZ. brawn and brains.
  10. Money can't buy taste! I'd like to know what gets out of "it".

  12. Talking about your car is nice, but it's nothing like stomping on the loud pedal. You drive the car, you fix the car. I have over 200,000 miles behind the wheel of a Z, stock and hybrid. they have bailed me out of many pilot errors. How many have in your Z wishing you were in your econocruiser. There 30 years old,they need work. Hybrids are a blackhole of time and money. If I have anywhere to go and theres a Z in the driveway that's the car i'll take.
  13. Death Sucks! I know it to well, I also know support from friends helps, even if you don't know them. my condolences, Randy
  14. I have a ABC in my shop and a halon in my car. I almost lost my shop to fire last week. I rent a shop in a 3 separate bay building. next door is a paint company, he was using some new type finish on some doors and wipeing them down with some painter plastic and throwing them in a pile. they combusted over night, caught his new sprayer on fire. The fire melted the plastic water line over head and put it out. All I got was some smell. Too close.
  15. Stay strong. I may be a jack momo,but I believe in the power of prayer. You have mine.
  16. Congrats on your Pinks win. You just flat spanked him. Love to see a Z with the nose up. Great video too. Can't wait to tez my buddy that runs a bb Blown dragster in the mid 7s. thanks for the smile.
  17. Thanks for your time and help. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
  18. I blew my truck up. Driving my daughters truck that she wrecked and it's not long for this world. I drive 40 miles to work over a 8400 ft. car killin pass. I bought this motor used and spent every dime I could fixing problem after problem.I had no faith in the block. I was not going to put all that on a questionable block. I've had it down to the short block for 1 1/2 years trying to get the money to send it in. It's been a bad 2 years. it was my cheapest hope of a car.
  19. I have been forced to put my 383 back together. It as a new top end.rebuilt edl. performer centerbolt heads with harland sharp 1.6 roller rockers, air gap performer intake 600 edl.performer carb. I bought this motor used and been fixing it eversince. I ran out of time and money to send the short block to the shop. I started it the otherday and the cam as a bad lobe,( i did brake the lifters in) Now the question, I see here that you don't think much of !.6 rollers. Should I lose the rockers and go with perfomer cam or should I get a cam for this setup. I'm broke and backing up.which is the right way from here. please help.
  20. I had to spend a month in my home town of Ogden Ut. While there I seen 'O' S30 Zs. I live in a small valley in Idaho, There are 3 here. Need I say more.
  21. L 88 scoop ,B&M starshifter, bumpers, the ends were flapping in the wind, they pissed me off so I took a sawsall to them. I've seen the problem handled better. We used to switch our brake lights, but only to evade.
  22. Looking good, I love it's stance. coils,flairs wheels next on my list. 5000 doesn't sound to bad to me. I'm in to my $500 "GOOD DEAL" stroker almost 3000 to straighten it out .I wish I would have just started at the end.
  23. I'm glade there's more, I bought 1 right after somebody got 22. so life's good. thanks
  24. It's not that hard to do . I was installing commercial window frames with a 25 caliber ramset, trying to hold the shims in I nailed my finger to the building. No use being a dumbass unless you can prove it!
