Good God!! You're the most patient man in the world! 5 YEARS?!?!? No way in HELL could I do it! I'll have to give you a plus for patience, I would have towed it home years ago. And probably hooked the wrecker up to the shop and towed it into the road... I hope you get it by August, even the most patient man MUST have a limit, no?

What is the date on this picture? That dont look like 5 years to me. More on this later, and it better be from Will.

Well I guess everyone got in a mud slinging match in Smooth's thread so for those who asked, there has been no progress so far on my car. Yes mice, fiberglass sun rot, and the interior are very much a concern of mine. I put brand new wheels/tires on it when I got it back from Archie and never got to drive it after that. Sucks, but what am I gonna do?

Loyde told me he would have it done by August - right at the 5 year mark.




Will, I've told you that I like Loyde. He is a nice guy. I won't talk bad about Loyde like others.

Sorry that the smile that I saw on your face in the picture that was taken at Archie's is gone.

How many Augusts have to come and go? Who else does these swaps? I was looking at your first post where it just needed the exhaust worked out almost a year ago. I have not done any engine swaps (other than repair) but I can't see where it would take this long to complete. Have the projects that you mentioned that were in front of yours, been completed and out of the way? Have there been others added in front of yours? It has been indicated that you are constantly changing your direction with your engine. Is this true and if so, how?
I've got a running, tagged and inspected Fino that I'll trade you for your yard art.
Good luck in whatever direction you decide to go.

I wont add my sig, it seems mean in this post.

So... That was the date you put my first engine into another car?

Like I said, in August, it will be 5 years.

Is that 11+k? Now I understand why you are being patient. You gave the man 11k and still are waiting for delivery. Man! I do not know what to say!

Pic removed for brevity



That looks an awful lot like an L67. I thought Will was getting an LS4?

Will, you get a + from me for super human patients.

Back in '04 I took in a contract to build a Countach replica for a client, shortly after things changed in my life. By '06 it was clear that I wasn't going to be able to do the car in anything aproaching a timely fashion, legally, I could have shipped him the parts and called it good, that would have been a mess. Instead I did the right thing, I took out a loan and bought out the project, I just sent the last payment on the loan last week. I'm just now starting to liquidate the parts.
