    Coming up on 2 years since I even set eyes on this one.
    79 Caprice on a 94 Caprice frame, LS swapped. Blew motor #2 in fall of 2013, put it in storage Memorial Day 2014, have not been to see it since. I actually don't remember exactly where it's at, I'll have to ask my coworker for directions to his place.

    Had a little scuf up on my Ultra a few years back, it's repair is on the back burner. I just pulled it from remote storage a few weeks ago. I ran some of the crap old gas out, gave it a decent bath last Sat, and tucked it away on the trickle charger...



    The main project.... "main".. is a VR6 swap on an 86 VW Cabriolet. This has been crawling along, I have not spent more than a few hours on this one in almost 10 months. I hope to pick up the pace on this very soon.



    Aside from that, running the side business and building/rebuilding some motors take up the bulk of the shop time. Currently, I have a LT1 381ci motor in for a re-ring and crank polish. This is a motor I did a full build on 5-6 years ago, and a leaky injector scuffed up a few bores. Luckily, all it's needed was a re-ring, quick ball hone, and crank polish. I'm starting in on the honing/ring-filing tonight hopefully.

    While I've rebuilt a few, I don't know much about them at all and really never tuned one.

    My landscaping. Need to paint the porch and fix a bunch of stuff in the back yard. Just takes money and time...and I usually end up spending both of those on more fun things.

    I pulled some other car parts out from under the VW last week, and moved the 4L80E out from under it too. Baby steps.

    Figured out how to blend metalflake, going to spray some root beer candy over it this weekend.

    I used to be 'with it'. Then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm 'with' isn't 'it', and what's 'it' seems weird and scary to me.......

    Ok, so here is mine. Bought this 13 years ago as a basket case. After I got it, I found the cancer ended up being a lot worse than originally thought and that really slowed its progress down. Worked on it good for a while. Then lost interest, and just in the last year or so I've been back on it. The plan now is to get enough done where I can put an ORV on it and trail ride it, and then winter projects after that to finish it up.
