Is that a 48 Chevy 4 door?
That patina is sex to me

Almost bought a Buick that looked like that for $800 last spring
Still kick myself but bought a cage for the crx instead

Pretty cool. But I don't like the "my car is beat up look" I mean it's neat to have a old car, but to add street signs and shit where there doesn't need to be anything is lame. Looks like there was quite a few cars there.

i dont recall checking on that one.

i took pics of the cars that interested me in some way. and the patina was win on that ride. had original straight 6 in it. had a surf board on top, car was legit. liked it.

kinda wish i had a better camera, cell phone didnt seem to capture cars the way it should have. that buick looked like was original unrestored also.

there where NO LSx swapped vehicles, couple LT1 swapped fuel injected rides. that Willys had a Kelsiner mechanical injection? think it was that orange chevy had a Dart block, some CNC heads, finished off with new GM OEM hoses, quality build.

obviously lots of SBC cars, but was a little suprized at how many cars had 396 BBC;s.

Race car> show car

exactly? buddy was saying the same thing when we where there.

i know its hard to make goals and stick to them in a project/build. easy to get carried away. just always try to remember that you need to drive it? spend 2-3k on paint, not 10k+...etc


idk man. i just cant stand the thought of the time and money into a build, and then only driving it to a couple shows and meets a year... not saying it needs to be the DD, driven in the snow or shit.

i came into work on a saturday... pretty chill days to work, 1 or 3 tech crews working, no parts deliveries, etc... and there was a....well i got pics:



34 Graham custom that was built by one of our techs. 100s of hours of labor. and he drove it to work. he has built other cars also that he has driven in.


i have fun building cars, driving cars... racing or showing them is ehh...
