So what I've concluded is I can't take Pat on because he's in preservation & I don't think I qualify for that group anymore. I have stainless exchangers & powder coated heating ducts, Optima battery, 195/65/HR15 tires, Bosch blue coil & an extra red wire comming out of my distributor. Oh yeah, the biggie- repaint. So all this effort is going to be for the "full" restoration class. Since I'm not really restoring the car I would think I'm going to kick some a** in that class & I don't feel that's fair to all the hard work someone is putting right now into their teener. Death to the a** draggers & nosedivers ! I will show no mercy to them & feel less remorse !
So all the hoopla about dethroning the old man is nothing but newbie ignorance. The only way would have to be at a smaller show where we get grouped together because we're teeners or something. My first show is still going to be Charolette next year. Loose my virginity against the 1st string. Maybe afterwards.
Got the rear sway bar looking new, brakes are all off to Eric for full refinishing. Worked on cleaning & polishing my rims, getting my new tires ready to mount & balance. All sorts of stuff now in the works & think it's time to keep my mouth shut on my progress.
