Rust Bucket Deployment
« on: April 15, 2015, 07:44:35 PM »
Wait... what?  Two nice days coming up in a row.  Time for big red to stretch her spring legs  8).  She only goes out with dry roads and clear skies.  The old gal will be gracing JBLM with here shiny self tomorrow. Ahh, spring is in the air which means September is right around the corner!

A sound bite would be great. And stop with the strip tease and let us see the whole thing.

RJ, I hate to say this to you, but if you move back to God's Country you won't have smooth asphalt anywhere to display this queen.  You have decisions to make, or at least compromises to consider.  You know that, don't you?

Begeezus, I'm trying to watch the Mariners game here (and will them to a win)... you bunch of damn hounds  ;).  OK, red is a 68, the first year of the rounded Chevelle body style.  Got her about 3 years ago as a true rust bucket/project car.  Only thing that was pretty much done was the engine.. PO was building her as a street racer.  Although logoed as a SS 396 in and out, something much more potent lurks under that pretty hood.  Let's just say when the fart exhaust Subaru's pull up beside me and hear the cam chugging thru the headers and 3" exhaust, they slink away like a whipped coyote pup.  Pretty much a ground up resto.. (had to sell my fishing boat to finance the project..  :'(..).  Here's a few more pics.  Go Mariners!

The way the M's are playing you might as well take the ol gal for a ride and forget about the Mariners, waste of time. :bash:
