my first car 73 chevelle malibu 350ci

Wait, you need money to build a car? Oh yeah....

I need to scan a photo of my car when I first started driving it. Looked exactly like yours. Brown!

Haha. That could be inspiring since you pretty much already built the car I had originally planned out. Bright red, black stripes, big wheels, lowered stance, argghhh! Now I'm juggling different ideas around like a burnt orange or maybe silver with 73 style stripes. Red with white hood stripes & some Convo-Pro big n littles might look good too. If only I could hit a big enough jackpot (or ditch the money hungry wife, lol) I could actually make my dreams a reality. Hmmm.... that last part sounds almost feasible.

I started with a 350/350, 2bbl, full smog, bench seat, rectangle speedo, non ac car. My dad bought it in 75 and I grew up in it. 350,000+ miles on it when I started driving. Put another 40K on it before tearing it apart the first time. Not because it was broke... but because it was slow. Hell, still have the original motor sitting in my dad's back yard. Doubt I'll ever do anything with it though.

I'll see what I can do to find some photos tonight.

Good luck on the wife part! LOL!

What is that suppose to mean? Do you think you're better than the rest of us, because you have gobs of money to throw at your car? You sure seem to like to flaunt it. Not everyone has that kind of money to throw at their cars. Just becasue they can't do something the way you did it, doesn't make them or their car not good enough.

Looking good corey when is that thing gonna blow some smoke?

Kyle step back a minute I do not think that's the way it was meant it was more of a sarcasm type of question, I have talked with him on more than one occasion and he doesn't come across that way to me at all

and DO YOU HAPPEN TO REMEMBER A MEMBER WE HAD HERE CALLED HYDROKING AT ALL ?? all taken with a grain of salt Kyle all taken with a grain of salt

Wow, once again young Kyle failed to see scarcasm on the internet. I appologized last time for doing nothing wrong, but not this time. Ever take a step back and see that no one else took it that way? Don't worry you"ll get it figured out after puberty.

I'm here to help if possible, but to have FUN too!!!!

Corey - nice work on the 9". Wish I had one.

Limey - Forgot to tell you congrats on the munchkin. Had our second little girl on the 18th. She cries less than Kyle.

Well, maybe if you used one of the 'smile' faces, it wouldn't be taken the wrong way. When I say something, that I think someone may take a way I didn't mean it, I will use one - that's part of the reason they're there. And are those personal jabs at me really necessary(puberty, crying etc)? I don't take personal jabs at you. I wouldn't think of doing that. I just say how I feel your posts read. You can't fault someone for that.

NO ONE else read it that way KYLE, and no I am not sticking up for n e one it just seems there still some resentment from your previous bantering's being held .................now both of you off to your neutral corners

THIS IS THE INTERNET IT WILL HAPPEN

LOL!!! Yes Dad.

Okay, I read the post wrong, big deal. I'm over it. We're all over it. I would still like an explanation to those personal(and unnecessary) jabs at me.

7pc stainless steel brake line kit from inline tube is on the way also a 32pc brake line clip and proportioning valve. and a edelbrock elite series round aircleaner and transmission inspection plate and radiator cap....thats everything it needs to start, run and drive (mechanically)
