    The 429 and C6 are over priced by a factor of a least 2 times.

    Thought about setting it on fire! We finally found the problem and got it to crank. I had transmission rebuilt and while it was sitting on jack stands the ignition module crapped out.

    I cleaned up my "new to me" intake I bought while in Florida, cleaned up the garage in general, so I can do some more welding on my project Grabber.

    Got a set of dual remote sport mirrors from a Pinto and the bracket that mounts underneath the dash for the passenger side remote that reads "R.H. Mirror". It cost me a 12 pack of Heineken. :thumbs2:
