    Dude, I hope you got that thing home before this hail storm hits!

    For those who don't know, Austin is under the threat of a pretty nasty storm right now. So if you're local, cover your junk!

    Fortunately, it's going to clear up great for the weekend....

    So for it's first official drive why not go 50 miles to eat some BBQ with some of my best friends? It'll cruise at 70 mph laser straight with almost the entire gas pedal in reserve. Way faster than I'm willing to try, and that's saying something, cause I'm nuts.

    Next morning Getting ready to cruise to the show:

    Did a little cruising and met up with some pals at the Continental club

    Next day, cruised to the show and won the Mad Fabricators pick! It was an incredible honor that my buddy Piero thought enough of the car to pick it as his favorite. I'm still sorta speechless and absolutely humbled over it. Bros for life dude!

    Next Step: Shake it down for a few weeks then yank the body for some Paint and interior!

    Paul, HUGE congrats, man! I saw (drooled over?) the car at the show on Saturday and wanted to say hi, but didn't see you anywhere. Would love to see the car before you tear it down again so let me know when you'll be out and about around town with it. And let me know if you need a hand.
     
  26. It was really cool to meet you at the LSR, that coupe is badass! Congrats on the trophy, it's well deserved.....caddy power forever!!!
