Hot Rods Modified Murray - The Final Chapter

Scott- will you be at the Auto Fair?

 

Okay, one is a "Murray" the other is a Murray.

Not sure on events yet. Going to Auto Fair and Good Guys, but not sure on what else. Let me know what you're asking for the extended bell block.

Bob, not going to make it to Hershey this year. And ya' just never know about hoods. I have a feeling it would have more holes in it then hood material, though.

Thanks for following along, man!

Yeah, there is a good chance you will beat me. HAHA!

Yes indeed! I will be there! Definitely going to Iron Lords open house as well. Last time was a blast. Those guys always have a nice get together!

 

So cool!

 

You really don't know how cool it is 'til you get a chance to sit in it!

Off-the-hook COOL! Great job, Scooter! Tell the missus hello!

 

In honor of the completion of your move, I rate this 5 Scooters



See you @ Auto Fair! vic

 

Scott, Good to hear that all is well at the moment. Be sure to tease us with the shop plans.

Scooter,
If you are doing a new garage/shop remember the basic rule: Shops are like tits, no such thing as "To Big"! so make it as big as you can and watch it fill up!! Great to see you made the trek east OK and good luck when winter comes.

Don't expect this car ever to be finished. He's been bit by the vintage Porsche bug and he thinks he's better then us now which is why most of the locals have only heard about Scooter and never actually met him. I think surrounding himself with heathen's that can't appreciate the finer things in life like Porsches sickens him to the point of nausea. So yeah maybe he'll throw us a bone by coming to the Iron Lords party but don't expect him to like it. Especially since there's caviar and wine but instead stale beer and chips but most of all because we still play with "kids cars" and haven't grown up.

 

Scoots,
Glad that everything got there ok. I've done those rides before in Hot Rods, It makes you really appreciate a daily until you hit the off the beaten path brger joints and Ice cream stands, then there is nothing that compares!

Enjoy the new digs and don't forget about us here at the Broiler.

 

Please Tell me your not one of those 356registry people now?!? those guys are asses!

 

I've heard from a reliable source that Scooter has been mistaken for the one and only "Jesse James" at an eating establishment nearby.

It was great meeting your wife and parents as well as you! Sounds like all the excitement didn't stop in New Mexico but I'm glad y'all made it to the east coast safely!

Thanks again for helping me out when you passed through as well!

 

I've heard similar reports. He's practically a local celebrity.

 

Scott's got a 1970 911 he just bought that's gonna need just about everything but did we really think he'd make it easy on himself? Bastard has me wanting something to carve up the windys now.

 

Has he been watching that Magnus Walker stuff? It's a slippery slope! They start eating $$$ !!

 

Porsche 356's (espcialy Jack Raby's Pre A outlaw) are on the bucket list, but those guys on the registry are douche nozzles...


Scot you ever check out Jack Olsen's 911 from over on the GarageJournal. That thing is sweet!!!!

 

There's a Porsche picture thread over on the DogFightMag board if you want to drool over other Porsches. I've had a hankering for one for a while now but I don't have the room so I try to appease myself through pictures.

Jack Olsen's 911 on the Garage Journal board (12-gauge garage.. if I'm not mistaken?) is drop dead gorgeous.

 

Oh geesh... the s*%t storm has started already?? HAHA!

Well, so here's the deal... First, Jeffrey is just jealous that he changed his last name to James and nobody recognizes him as the other guy. Second, hot rods till I die (and maybe this build will kill me early), third, to clear the air... I DID buy a '70 911T that was someone's weekend racer. I think it was a built as a '74 RSR clone. It's a mess. But, I've always wanted a 911 and the price for the roller was way too good to pass up. I had to sell a few things to get it. It's FAR from being a complete car and it will be a long time until I have the money to build it. And I have to finish THIS car before I build anything else.

Magnus is a ruler! If you ever sat in his '72 race car, you would have the bug too. That thing is INSANE! He is certainly the hot rodder of the early 911 world. Or maybe he's the "Rob Zombie" of the 911 world??

Thanks everyone for the words! And I'll definitely keep you posted on the garage plans. Aiming to pour a slab next fall. Maybe sooner. Gotta' pay off the move, first.

Also, I would just like to add, that I'm a beer and pizza kind of guy. No fish egg food for me!

 

Liar.

 

^^^ If you haven't solved your elec. problems, get off the computer and get to work. vic

 

I only had an hour while Davina had a break in her schedule and in that time I reinstalled the generator and regulator and hooked a wire or two back up. Gonna have to wait til little man goes to sleep before getting out there and tackling it again. Shooting to be driving again tomorrow!

 

Yes.. Magnus Walker is a ruler!

But let's keep our attention on this Modified Murray-Briggs-Whatever. This is the HAMB, after all..

 

Like two peas... err, carrots in a pod

 

Glad to hear that you made it out there, ok. Sorry about the troubles, but I'm glad you are getting settled.

Porsches are like a chronic illness, if you pay attention and keep it in check, you may be able to keep some quality of life! If not, they will DESTROY you!

 

Scott, sorry Brad and I couldn't make the Iron Lords get-together on Sat, but it was great to finally meet you!

 

Hey man! It was great to meet you guys also! Great to put faces with names! It was also a reminder of just how small this world is and how much the HAMB has brought people together from all over. Pretty cool!

 

Definetly my kind of hot rod. If you can find the time stop in for a visit. A 28 i built for a friend and the 27 i just finished for myself. I also have a 33 Willys, 32 roadster, a rat rod, the blue 27, 46 Chevy hi boy with a 241 hemi, 30 lakes modified and some vintage race cars.
