Where did you work @ in Brea  ???




We built a building in the back yard. Dont even remember the name of the paint shop there on Brea Blvd. Then moved to a shop over in Fullerton. Used to do a lot of '63-6s. Worked here in Vegas at Tuckers GM Performance for a little while a few years ago, couldnt get any money out of the guy. You keepin busy? Doin any cars? You can have that '68 steel bumper car again, aint nothin but cubic dollars. My brother had a '66 factory "Daytona Special" roadster in '69. Came  w/ L-88 hood, rear spoiler (part of the car), knock offs and side pipes, 4 spd of course, blue w/ two wide black stripes. Yes L-88 in '66.....tri-power....4:11s

Don't understand Corvettes.

Why would anyone in their right mind want to strap themselves into a lightweight fiberglass chassis and THEN toss in anywhere from 400 to 1500 hp?  and then actually DRIVE it?.................................Oh,.... Wait a minute ......................Oh boy................. Ok, "Hello!.....Kettle? yeah, this is the pot!"

Never Mind!  ;D

I frequent that site under the same name. I have a 04 C5 auto which is slower than my 02 Z/28 ! 100 shot of nitrous helps but it still has 60 more horses at the wheels without the spray.
