Thanks copper that would be great I didn't see one in the for sale section but I'll have another look, I'm going to buy a cherry picker and the engine stand just to get ready, I have seen a couple 350's here in Toronto but I would prefer to get one from someone on the site here. Thanks buddy !!

I hope they hold up I read up on other sites and most guys said if I go with shortys get the ceramic the will last for many years and look good . I'm hoping for the price I paid for them. I also heard the header paint works well too ! I seen so good wrap I think its lava wrap that would have been my 2nd choice Mac

Oh you sprung for the ceramic coating, very good. I think I'm just going to blast the crappy paint off of mine and use stove paint. It holds up pretty well and is easy to reapply. But it comes in black AND silver so I need to decide

I'm sure they will look great either way. I seen some really nice lava wrap that might work well to keep the heat down!! I heard the ceramic keep the heat down as well so I figured ahh why not see how they hold up.

My wife hates snakes and has never let me buy one. I think I wore her down and she picked me up this beautiful 6 year old corn. Her name is Tangle and I love her. My wife is slowly warming up to it...

Looks like some cool stuff you guys got! Not sure about the snake yet---
I was lucky to get some Olds related stuff this year.

The signs were from my sister - she special ordered them off amazon. They could do any car or lettering. Nice quality, too.

The garage clock was from my mom. Kinda goes with my old vintage set of craftsman tools I use when working on the car.

The 1200 Defender was from myself. Not really Olds related, but it can help protect it if needed. My other shotguns were too big to hide easily and easily use indoors. Hope i never have to use it, but it is nice to know it is there and ready.

The theory is where I was confused too. once I got in it made sense but I will point out the areas I had issues understanding. It wont be for a few weeks until I get this project going should be a one day job but I will take pics and point out things the best I can. This will only be my second one but I thik I can atleast show how it's done from the point of view from someone who is mechanically inclined but yet had to overcome the theory aspect of it.


Here is my thread from last time. Semi imformative.
