Bit the Bullet
Well, after 50 years of lusting for one of these cars, I bit the bullet yesterday and am now the proud owner of a 2001 Superformance car with a 427 SO engine. Sure looks good sitting in the garage :)

Thanks everyone. It's probably going to be in the garage for a couple of weeks just doing service on it and tweeking all the little nits to get it like I want it. Well, I guess if it's like my other hobbies, it'll NEVER be exactly like I want it ! But part of the fun is trying to reach that goal :)

Well, I've been laughing my butt off reading your guys responses. The "couple of weeks in the garage" has now been over six weeks ! The engine has been out and is now back in the car but I've still got a lot of work to do to get it all back together again. Should have had it running a couple of weeks ago, but sometimes life gets in the way. And now, I'm on a three week motorcycle ride. This retirement stuff is hard !:LOL: I'll post some pics when I get it back together.
Ted
