time flies by...

i was last here back in September when I was balls-to-the-wall working on my car evenings and weekends (family allowing) - and then "life happened".

One of my businesses required some serious love so I started sitting in front of the computer evenings and weekends chasing that elusive buck. Last weekend was the first time I've worked on the car since probably October and it felt great!!

In some ways it was good to step back. There are a few things I've already ground off the chassis and moved to a better spot - the dry sump oil tank and water header tanks weren't working in their old locations but with the body on I found a better spot. I'll finish that up this weekend and post pics.

I'm really on here to say, "woo-hoo" to y'all, and to post some pics when i pushed the old girl outside with the body on to see how she looked. This was the first time i could really stand back. (the front end isnt fitted btw, just sitting on blocks)

Hey, and if there is anyone around Atlanta (I'm southside in McDonough) who wants to meet up or come over for a jar or two, gimme a PM...
