    I DO!! (ok, it was trick question).
    As of Sunday afternoon anyway. We delivered the tub to Dearborn and picked up the coupe from MrGasser in Royal Oak.
    Other than dropping in the 327 from the tub and a few minor changes, it should be on the street in no time (well, as long as the roads have ben plowed).
    And I'm still STOKED!!

    Donnie,
    Do you get a clear title with that thing [​IMG] You know how those Detroiters can take advantage of us country folk. [​IMG] The Torrid Torquers will be over in the morning to see it [​IMG] IMHO you got a real good deal. Randy will miss that ride but I'm sure he has something cool in the wings.

    I hope you got a deal, cuz if I remember...the brake lights weren't working and something was rattling up in Birch Run. [​IMG] Congrats Donnie, I have always been a fan of Randy's car, it should be alot of fun for you!

    Very cool Donzie, I'll be going over to Tim's some time this week to check out his T-Coupe, now I get to see the Tub as well.

    I can see it now uncle Fat Hack crusing the kids around our local cruise spot in the tub.

    Hey! The brake light problem was just a fuse, and that rattling was a stupid, METRIC bolt,(I don't know how that got in there!), that came out of the fan shroud!...don't be hate-n!

    Even cutting off the roof won't stop it from being RANDY'S car. Better kick Kustombuilder in the ass and get that Chevy done. At least then all we can accuse you of is being a CHECKBOOK RODDER instead of trying to ride the coat tails of a FAMOUS Deeeeeeeeetroit rodder. hehehe!!!

    Hey Donnie,
    If I recall Randy is just a "little" bit taller that you. So how is the seat height? Can you see over the streering wheel or do ya have to look through it. [​IMG]

    What's wrong with owning a car that belonged to someone famous? I suppose you'd pass up a chance to own a Barris car, huh?
    Frank, you should be thankful for "checkbook rodders". [​IMG]

    Actually, being shorter will have an advantage. My head won't hit the roof when I hit a bump, so I won't have to wear one of the scarves on my head to keep from getting spider webs in my hair. [​IMG]
