I am with Old Newbe
« on: December 27, 2018, 05:28:40 PM »
Thanks for having me.

I am the other half of Yachtsmanbill. He lets me play around with cars and boats and all kinds of fun stuff. I enjoy looking at the old engines. At least I know what I am looking at. January we bought me a 2018 Impala. I finally looked under the hood and didn't recognize anything. Give me the old 4 barrel carb any day over the fuel injection. Looking forward to having both cars at the car show here (hopefully next summer). I can drive the '72. For some reason I never learned stick. maybe I will with the '64....ppat

Happy Birthday Pat!!  The Old Newbe posted about your special day and I just want you to know that we appreciate you and your support of Bill and his project.  You really should ask him to slow down a little bit though.  He's making the rest of us look bad in comparison.  I've only been working on my project for 4 years now and he's going to have his done in about 4 months!  :laughing7:

And what could be better than celebrating your birthday in the shop helping to install a monster powertrain in a 50 year old classic?  Kudos to you!   :headbang:

Enjoy a blessed birthday!

 :cheers2:
