Actually this was my personal site made with Microsoft Word and it was on my free earthlink web space.

Talk about a blast from the past. Only 3 cars. Mine and two local friends.

Well I think it is safe to say that the site has had a little growth in the past few years.
It is nice to know that there are others in the world that are passionate about their cars as I am mine(even though I haven't had time to work on it in a while).

Two smartass comments
1) Nice :moon: on the boat trip page
2) Show us recent pictures of the camaro so we can compare then and now.


I know , I know :getout:

Wow ,the link to my car still works from there. If I knew then what I know now I wouldn't have spent money on a few parts that I did and would have saved a bit more for the ones I really wanted. :spank2: I also remember thinking that my car would be finished for about 22k and be worth about 25k when done. Now I will have about 27k or a bit more into it with 5 more years and it will seemingly be worth about double what I will have in it when you look at the way prices are going. :twothumbs I never would have believed that a modified Camaro would ever go for more than 100k no matter what anyone did to it but we are definately wrong about that now aren't we. :cool:

Thanks for taking me back to when it all really started and reflect on how much better things are with 4k plus members now. :cheers:

Bill, only difference between the "then and now" pics of Larry's car is a layer of dust :naughty:

Wow thats neat...I would have never remembered the two lane blacktop homepage, until you posted that....it's kinda like driving through you old neiborhood, or visiting your elementary school.
