I like what you are doing with your ride. Very cool brother
Thank you! I’m planning on doing some more cosmetic updates such as seals and some interior bits but really am not trying to alter its appearance to much most people that see it enjoy seeing it in its “survivor” clothes I guess you could say

I certainly get it. It is he details that count. I have spent countless hours on my car on the little things. Is it a perfect show car?? no, every time i drive it i have 3 miles of Georgia clay road which has kept me in check. But i have good weather stripping, gaskets and such. Details matter

I think they are still doing that one but this one is being organized by the Kernersville organizers should be a good event


I’ll try to make it out to that one... the Chief is in partial hibernation at the moment, but would probably like to stretch his legs a bit...

did you guys make it out yesterday? I ended up running late, and got there when everybody started leaving out... seemed like a decent event, but of course the idiots attempted to get it shutdown after the first one. camaro ended up over a curb and almost took out the opposite lane... sad, because the owner of Dedona tint & sound is an old customer of mine and is the one trying to organize this one...

Yeah but I left out about 915 as I had to do some work to my Tahoe yesterday. I heard there were idiots leaving out on Facebook as they made a post about it

Since 1evilregal posted a pic of the car today in the cruise posting, is there any updates or changes with the car since it's been almost a year since anything was posted?

No nothing new just been driving it and enjoying it. Nothing new on the 82 GN either as it is waiting on me to order some parts. Hoping to get back on the ball on the 82 this winter as I’ve put it off for some time now. Just looking to add a 84-86 Dodge Daytona to my fleet and then I’m done buying for a bit so I can focus on what I’ve got.
