Thanks `Mike for your reply. I going to have lunch with my grandfather 2day & he made mine & the beachbum's surf boards outa fiberglass. I will ask him what he thinks about it. Could they be made of steel or aluminum ?
I will have to take a closer look at the way that NASCAR is making them...I wish I had the talent & time to research more, but I hope that maybe my posts will inspire one of our talented member's...?

Well I'm on a little earlier then yesterday. I had to take my grandson for his golf classes. He's 10 and loves it So while he was doing that. I took a ride looking at a friend of mines Motorcycle. I got to stop that. Everytime I sit on one or take one for a ride. I WANT another one. Well I think i have a job lined up for a couple of nights a week. When I got back from AZ this spring. I went and had lunch with a few friends from my old job. And the overnight manager said then he's like to have me back. I told him I had a few things to take care of 1st. WELL. He called last night and wants to talk to me this afternoon. I think a part time job to get my AZZ out of the house. Just might be what I need till DEC again. Sooo we'll see what happens this aft. Gets BORING just sitting around the Ranch while all your friends are at work. Hope everyone has a pretty GOOD day.

HI Space: LOL I don't get bored on here. . But I can spend all day on here. Once the weather cools off a bit then I'll go outside. I hate all that Humid weather we've been having. I couldn't live where your at cause of that. Thats why I like Phoenix during the winter time. There during the winter monts its around 10% during the day. Thats dry! Getting to the Chevelle. Thats a bit high as far as i'm concered. Maybe more like $ 25 to$ 28,000. It;s a very nice car. But the market isn't back there yet. You can find a lot of nice Chevelles on line. Plus looks like a dealer is selling his car for him. So that jacks up the price also. Look at the Barett- Jackson and there another one thats on TV. Some of the cheaper NICE cars are going for $15,000 to $ 25,000 that are GREAT looking cars. I seen some at B. Jackson this yr that were very nice looking. NOT Total show cars but drivable Hot Rods that were priced right.

Wish everyone a Super Afternoon & Day...EnJoy..
