strotter Posted November 4, 2001 Share Posted November 4, 2001 Well, I picked up the vict - uh, project car yesterday. A '72 with everything there, and all of it needing work. Drove it home at *ridiculous* speed, though, dizzy with excitement and carbon monoxide as I listened to the sweet cuh-clunk of the front suspension and the mutiple rattles of loose panels. As a matter of fact, I composed a poem (which wasn't hard, as the hallucinations made the imagery just *flow*...) You're my little grey Z, With a thunk in your rear, And a groan and a crunch and a rattle. When we get to my house I'll get down on my knees, Have a look and make plans for the battle. I'll go nuts on you kid, Make a bet, wait and see, I'll do things to your innards improper. Yes I'll cut and I'll toss and inspect and discard, Till you're no-one's idea of "eye-popper". But I'll make you again, Bend and fit, weld and bolt, 'Till your panels are full and a-bulging, With a motor and a tranny and a wire or two, Oh the costs will need government funding. But sometime, someday, You'll roll once again, With a different and new disposition. And you'll take me, like wind, to my new friend and yours, A clinical mental physician. Just thought I'd share, Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted November 4, 2001 Share Posted November 4, 2001 Heh, that was pretty good! Congrats on your new project! I feels better to do "things" to a car that needs lots of TLC than to cut up a perfectly sano 240Z. Then again, anyone can modify a car, but it takes a real man to cut one up!

Kevin Shasteen Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 Congrats Scotty on your find...and getting it home in one piece. At least, with all the exhaust, you shold take comfort in knowing that no mesquito's followed you home! Your work zone should be an insect free zone, (smirk: humorously I jest). Good poem, sounds like the wheels are turning as the imagination goes wild w/mod's. Keep us updated. Another lost soul (your inline Z) has found its way home & anxiously awaits the V mod!
