I've been gone for a while. My father died and I lost interest. Picked up a new hobby. Firearms. What a great time to start that. Now I have two hobbies constantly under attack from political types...
I inherited a Mint 1967 Chevelle Malibu turned SS tribute. 350/400/12 bolt. But will probably cash that one in. The OG owner has contacted me and wants it. He and my father spoke a few times trying to make a deal but it always involved trades that were of no interest.
The paint On my Nova is still a mess but I did get bucket seats and had the rear seat upholstered to match. Need to install head liner and build a console. I'll be around now that I found this app. I no longer have a computer just my phone... I find it causes me less hassles that way.... I also no longer work for the company I used to be at. I could no longer in good conscience produce parts that could possible kill one of us...

Well Flux Capacitors are in this year, with speedos that only go to 88mph.

Welcome back.

The link to your build isn't working for me.

Welcome back and condolences on your loss. I can relate to the loss of your father. I lost mine in January. I had a bit of a time getting back into the van but he specifically told me to "finish that damn thing..." before he passed, :), so I got back into it after a month or so.
I have also changed jobs recently so we seem to have a lot in common at the moment.
Oh, and just so you know. Building Astro vans in PT style is THE hot ticket after your two year lapse.

I'm an ammo hoarder now. But it's non existent unless you hit Wal-Mart early in the AM when they stock ...

I almost said the same thing. Stielow built another cool car or two in the last two years.
