It doesn't matter. You will trade it off for a used up DC-3 with 2 Pratt & Whitney stroker engines and slammed and narrowed landing gear in a few months. Some people are never satisfied . Even better, a surplus Navy submarine with two 2 barrel nuke reactors and a couple of "Tar Peters" (as they say on Sand Mtn.) :lol:  :lol:

Haha ..hA. HA.
Yeah I'm catchin alot of flak on selling it. Everyone wants to remind me how rare it is. I'm not made of money and whoever owns this car better be.
I got a car worth more than I could ever sell mine for the motor cost the guy 7 or 8 grand. It sad to see it go but less so when I know the car is going to a better place than I would give it. I aint getting burnt in the deal by no means.

Hey ! That would work or maybe a ME-262 and then maybe not.  I think the ME-262 was a lot like a Type-4.  Goes like Hell for a short time before it " Throws A Shoe"  What do you think ? :lol:  :lol:

Whoa Nelly !!!   Impressive But it seems to me I recall someone making the statement :  " No more hotrod crap for me. I have learned my lesson" :?  :roll:
     You are correct about flying a ME-262 but I did get to sit in one and I got to sit in the first intact captured Jap Zero .  This Zero was the one they found upside down in a bog complete with dead pilot after he tried to land with his wheels down on that soft Tundra on Attu island in Alaska. He died of a broken neck,they think, when undid his seatbelt and fell on his noggan

Well if you have to have a hot rod have one thats done right,thats about 7-8k in the motor in that varmit. 2332 Cb performance 200hp kit motor with some extra goodies thrown in. The guy who built it knows his stuff.
The vert it's in aint too shabby either. :wink:
This car is nuthing I would imagine owning but sometimes you gotta do crazy stuff.
I also said I drive my cars everyday and thats changed as well.Driving any of them everyday means working on them every other weekend.
I'm past that phase,just want somethin to drive on the weekends and get revenge on that Honda that tried to get me. :twisted:

If it helps the guy who's getting the razor is going to make a show car out of her,kinda like charm school for a trailer park girl. :lol: It's a good solid T34 it doesnt deserve the stuff I do to cars. :wink:

He couldnt bring hiself to lose it again he offered the RHD for it. Ive delt with no less than a dozen deals from here to Australia this guy is willing to deliver on Friday,paid the deposit,and buying all my parts for it. Not to mention the vert is a very nice high dollar build and you know how I hate riceburners. :lol:

Your right I'm buying rock guards for the headlights and floor mats,If I get real bored I might buy some braided lines and clean up the wiring on it to be all purdy but thats about it. I have a 57 Ragtop to finish building and when it's done I'm done. That would be building 3 cars in a year thats plenty enough.

I'm finishing my dads oval and cleaning out the garage,I'll leave the working on cars to the experts there's no money in it for me. I dont have the patience to deal with the nut jobs and penny pinchers any more.
Honestly I may have someone else work on mine for a change. it's got all that new fangled MSD ignition and 48 idas...????Paying mechanics wont that be a site. :lol:

The fella left Jacksonville FL a few hours ago so the Ghia will be on the trailor headed south by sundown.

I drove 1 last time this morning and got pulled over again by East Ridge's finest.....to low??? I made a copy of all the TN codes and highlighted them for the officer...he didn't seem impressesd. He called his supervisor who looked at the car measured the bumper height looked at the paper and let me go saying you should still raise it up a bit more. :lol:

The vert isn't near as low and with the motor in it I'm not going to lower it anymore. :shock:  So long police harrassment!!!! This is what happens when Dunkin Donuts pulls out of town...gives em to much free time. :lol:
