Nice! I passed that intro of yours after "Somehow, some think that is bad, bragging or whatever." Man, I love pics. Any pics, rusted buckets, shine butterflies, I just love to see what people in here are doing. The car looks great and it is great to look at. Thanks for sharing the pics.

Update:
Got to Brian's(baz67) house around lunch time, cleaned up the car some, then went to Tyler's shop. Had a body guy next door buff the spot out, so all is cool with that. Then we put the ride up on Tyler's rack and did a couple minor fine tuning things. Then Brian, his daughter, and I took a buddy of mine to his hotel on the strip. That's right, we drove the GTO down the strip. How cool, lot of looks and whisles. No temp issues or anything else for that matter. I am looking forward now to next weekend. I will make a mile or two in it after the show. Of course, plenty of pictures, but I do not know how to download them, so I will have to get someone to do it. I will post them, no latter than Monday night, that is when Melinda will be here.

Monday Night; I will be in Vegas!!

**USAZR1** · 10-30-2005

Man,I like GTO's and yours is an awesome ride,Bill.
I'm seriously green with envy.

**Damn True** · 10-30-2005

Just a hint guys. The Champagne rooms at Cheetahs.....total rip-off.

**baz67** · 10-30-2005

Here are a few pics I took of Bill on the strip. The other one is my daughter so keep it clean. It is just to show we were at on the strip. The pics do not do this car justice.

**dropit69** · 10-31-2005

Bill I love the ride But I don't know how me saying Im not a fan of verts in anyway meant I hated your car?
We discussed it in length and I though it was straight. Have you changed your mind and me not liking verts IS an issue or what.

Dude, I did not know you and I had an issue? I respect people that step up and say they don't like something and why. No problem here, no issue with you. My problem was with the complaining with pictures and how the site has changed. I feel it has changed in a positive way, others thing it should be a "TECH ONLY" site. I feel there is room for everyone. I don't rag on the tech guys, and I would hope they would find room in this big ole world for us posers! Hopefully some will see this week that my car does have the right stuff, it just leans toward the streetrod look. Why? cause that is what ME likes....

The vert thing goes back a long way with me, again, cause Me likes them. I understand this will really effect track days, but I built a Protouring car not a track car.
You know who I was referring to, and he will be here this week. Hopefully with some one on one time, we can both see each others point of view.

BTW, I love the apple avator.

Taking the chance of ruffling some feathers, I am going to take the chance to undo some complications. Yes I was one of the people to "complain" about pictures and stuff. HOWEVER Bill, this is a good post. No one wants as you say a "tech only" forum. It needs a good balance. That was my point. I have always wanted to see pics of your car, and can't wait to see it at SEMA. It was that the site is/was out of balance. It seemed like it was getting overwhelmed with posts in all of the forums of just pictures of cars or advertisements, or parts, renderings and just plain no tech, all showoff. Absolutely nothing wrong with posting a project update with pictures of your car in the project updates forum. In fact I reguarly check this forum because I LIKE seeing updates!!! I think you got the signals mixed up. I think when I said I was tired of people who ONLY come to this site to show off their car you thought I was referring to you which I definetly WAS NOT. If you really want to know the truth, to be honest the "hype game" you were playing IMO was personally getting old, I just wanted to see a post with good pics of your car, not "spy shots" it felt like you were baiting me trying to get more attention than it was worth. Trust me, the car IS worth plenty of Attention!!! no need for the secrets!!
It goes even deeper than this(NOT THE PART ABOUT YOU) and you know how i feel about the entire way things are going. I think you took it a little personal when in fact it wasn't even about you.

There is no need for anyone to jump in on the thread about what I have just said. I think some people were mislead and weren't sure what Billl was talking about, and I wanted to explain it. A lot of you newer guys probably don't know what I am talking about because you don't remember how the board used to be. Lets leave the thread about the GTO, hopefully Bill will see that there is no need to feel attacked and continue to post pics of his awesome GTO "streetrod"

..........J/K!! Protouring GTO!

EDIT!!!! THAT AVATAR IS PRICELSS!!!

**LowBuckX** · 11-01-2005

Well said. I hope all is clear with us now.

I had to find a rotten apple for the avatar after the comments... lol

Hope to see you in Chat After SEMA Bill.

**Bill Howell** · 11-01-2005
