Most gratifying repairs 200

"Gold standard and pinnacle of the hobby, I'd say."

Art, as always, I am honored by your kind words! I'd say that build was the gold standard and pinnacle of a possible psychological disorder indication! But heck, it was fun, driving the car is great, but most of all, scaring the snot out of unsuspecting passengers with the handling is simply priceless!

The scary part is that this "disease/disorder" seems to be getting worse... a new to me 245 (black exterior/gray interior) will be rolling into my garage in two weeks. This will not be a resto-mod, just an outright change anything I want to mod, the saws have new blades, the metal shears are sharpened, the engine stand is loaded with a new block, and there is a Tremic trans sitting on the floor right next to the Bertone glass.

If I get lucky and find a job locally, the project will take two years, if not, I'll finish it shortly before I retire!

Well, as far as diseases/disorders go, I believe "Brickitis" is a great one to have!
