Default check out this vette...

right around the corner from my workshop... I could probly throw a rock and hit his garage. Its a '70 with a 9" Ford rear, 4 link, MONSTER tires, and a full cage. He's got a 454 under the hood. This thing sounds mean.. awesome car. Stopped by in my vette to BS cause he was outside working on it. sorry for the crappy phone pic.

Crappy phone pic?!? that's not bad at all - definitely a lot nicer than the old 100 megapixel digital dinosaur camera that I used to have.

And yes - a very intimidating looking beast he has there.

you should see the AMC Javelin parked in the bay next to the vette.... didnt get a good look at it, but from the strips of rubber I've seen on the road, its pretty mean as well.... and yes, the AMC is tubbed out as well.

nice guy to talk to. there's a car show Sunday he's going to... he wants to take the vette but its not registered... he "might" take it... if not, the AMC is going.

I thought about getting a vanity plate... I'll be re-registering my car as a classic next year once I'm 25 (so it can be in my name as a classic). Thought about making it:

MNYPIT



I might have to...
