Default RE: Hello from Lee Willis

I'll try to post a picture of the car. 4.3 liter V8, optional 410 HP factory upgrade and alot of run-fast stuff, 6-speed, double wishbone suspension, carbon fiberroof and part of the chassis, drive shaft, etc. all leather, all hand stitchedinterior and electric exhaust cutouts, with 15" discs for the brakes, every gadget you've ever heard of . . . my favorite car ever.

It's not that fast, maybe 12.8-13 sec quarter, but it will out corner anything I have owned including the Porsche, and it will outbrake anything I've ever seen.

I thought the 'Martin' was new.
Congrats on your success.

How is your transmission working out. Prove to be too noisy or hard to shift. I always liked them.

Momma always said Stay In School or you'll end up a truck driver, at least you took her advise! So you now have an AM too cool! Wish you lived closer, at least I could get a ride now and then.
Your new user name should be 007. PG.
