  1. Four doors are great for lots of things... Like...hmmm... Errrr.... Wait I kno- never mind... Hang on.... Ah! I got it... They're great for making tin cans out of! And target practice!
  2. Small mint? I'm into the ta for about 3500 bucks...
  3. If you do the work yourself, and are smart about your initial investment ie. A popular, but not too popular 2 door car with minimal rust, you can easily recoup your investment or even turn a tidy profit. When the time comes to part with my trans am I will have no trouble at all making a profit and will likely even double my money. Including the costs it took to paint the car.
  4. show me the car in that picture worth restoring??? I see a more-door and a Datsun...
  5. Novas great. Nre's rx7 is kickass. Look it up. 1650 horse 2nd gen r x7. Runs on pump gas. Idles like a stock vette . 16 inches of vaccum. Etc.
  6. First show with the ta. Dad owns the camaro, my uncle that painted the ta owns the Monte and my grandfather owns the 57
  7. Haven't decided yet Steve. If I do go it'll just be for the day.

  9. Got a sealed tilt front end chevelle at a flea market Sunday also:
  10. I bought a reg cab step side 4x4 chev half ton as my first car. Black, 305, loved it. Got to be too much on fuel and had to sell. Bought a cavalier. Finally got a fun car again with the purchase of my trans am. Thrilled.
  11. If it hasn't run in 30 years the seals are the least of your worries. The rings will be absolutely toast.
  12. Might watch the f1 race. Indy I don't care for at all and nap car is better than ambien
  13. I got....the hood back on my ta and ready for paint.. Slowly but surely its coming along. Soon I'll have time to get back to the bench.
