People like sketchy. Look at how many movies Nicholas cage keeps making.
The more issues something has the more impressive it gets that its on the road as-is, and, the more amusing it becomes.

You know, it just struck me, I bet we could convince MrSony to make a special trip out and straight pipe that bad boy.....
Embrace the sketch.
Picked this shifter up today. It’s from a sixties GTO supposedly. I think it will be a nice addition to this car. Especially since the original shifter was for 200-4r and I have a TH350 in it now. Too bad it doesn’t have the bend like the one from my 79 H/O.

After a long weekend of getting the 62 vette painted, I went up into the attic to grab the lower moldings from the car. I also had a few stored in the trunk. When I opened it I was surprised to see the trunk light working. I guess my trips around the block are working her back in slowly.
I also retarded the timing quite a bit, and it’s running way better.

Yesterday I had a little time so I threw the fan on, zip tied and loose wires, and put the fan shroud on. Decided to take it for a spin. Went a little further than normal, but had to get home to take my son to cub scouts. A little later on we took the car out and ran it for about 25 minutes. Runs pretty good. Still have to finish wiring up the choke, and retard the timing a bit. Might have to replace the brakes, as they’re pretty pitted. Also really needs the tailpipes. But the car puts a smile on my son’s face.
