Big, big fat ass day today! Andy, Kent and Bob hit a grand slam! We have had other kick ass days, but today was the biggest. I thought we were doing well when the engine started. Little did I know I would be driving it today as well. I even got the tires to bark. Although the engine case is matching, the engine itself has a little something more than a stock 2 liter.
This car sat outside for almost twenty three years being neglected. Once I got it, it was another almost three years to get it to this point. Thanks, bitches. You three guys f-n kill me.
PS. If you listen real close at the end of the video, you can hear my wife say, "why is he driving like such an idiot?" Andy said, "your day was when you got married, this is his day." Damn right, bitch!! You tell her Andy!

Jim even let Andy and I have a turn behind the wheel. Strictly for test purposes though...yeah right! Thanks dude. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) It was really cool to see you get to drive it.

It was a pretty cool day and to see Jim's face light up when the car came to life was priceless!! This passion for these cars has created some great times and life long friendships. I feel lucky to have been involved with Jim's Six and do this for a living as well!!! Working in the same bay our own Slits once worked in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Thanks Jim
