Since Project Slow Devil went so easily, may I propose... Project Greased Lightning ? Imagine, in this sleek machine you can wheel with your friends on board, and enjoy true power from the big 6. The ad says it runs, so all you have to do is fly out to sunny CA and drive it home, with no trouble whatsoever! Couldn’t be easier. Bring a hat.

My challenge is this: Fly out in advance, make it “roadworthy”, drive it the 150ish miles up to Monterey for the Concours d’LeMons, then sell it for enough to at least break even. Or, you know, drive it home... What could possibly go wrong?

C’mon man! If he’s gonna fly out to Cali for a Jeep, shouldn’t he at least get one that isn’t all rusted out for once?

Oh, who am I kidding? This has DT written all over it.

If it was a nice one this wouldn’t have even come to mind! That dude is a world class glutton for punishment.

i dont think i can count the number of inline-6 that i have helped put back running over the years. tractor engines. then with a manual in it......... a trained CHIMPANZEE could drive it back to detroit. those guys are near giving it away.....

We must look past the limitations of the physical world, to what our spirit demands.

...Uhh, or something. I have the same problem.

My wife demands I don’t buy more vehicles.... I do wish I had the space or I would buy it and kill the rust, then hold onto it until I could start a good restoration. My friend has a shop and everything, welder, he’s working on the Z, I like these too.... sad.
