    Pictures are in the works! only 4 or 5 left on the roll!
    Took the car to mr bill tonight he wanted to see how it runs!
    In the street in front of his house is now filled with one very
    long black mark. Man was it great to see my car going down the street with all of that smoke!!!!!!!!!
    Good thing we live in the country. It was the insperation that I
    needed to work overtime this weekend. 20 hours or more(bummer).
    As Bill got back with the car he said that when I get gears and traction his elcamino with the ZZ4 and B&M turbo 350 does not have a chance! I told him DUUUU! There is no substitue for cubic inches. More later 3:00 comes way to early.

    Gettin your car back after a long time is a great, great feeling. Makes you enjoy it that much more. Although its tough not to have some fun driving a skylark. Enjoy it man :bglasses:
