WOW! no I'm the one who feels honored :wrench
Bill it was great talking with you on the phone, I'm sorry I couldn't talk longer.
Tommy remember's the AT&T guy that has the black S197 GT that used to come by the old shop, and that is who stopped by while we were on the phone, that wanted to looks at the Griggs GR40RT car we run.
As for getting close to the cars,
SURE I'll let you get near them, but now instead of driving off I might just stick you in one, as I did Jason lastnight.
He was curious about the Shelby Terlingua (the one pictured on the lift), I gave him an over view and then look him for a little spin, just happend to roll in behind and unsuspecting 2000 Vette who wanted to play a a little, Ooooops did he get butthurt
Jason decided right there that he didn't need to go buy a new Coyote 5.0 Stang.
But really, yes it would be great to meet you in person Bill, I'm dying to see that beautiful Mark you have worked so hard on.
Maybe I'll drive the Cobra R Clone (wife's hot rod)so you can see it instead of my 25 year old pick-up.
The red GT500 vert pictured was her daily for months till I took the drive train out of it, Tom and Tiff both will attest it ran ok, for 525rwhp, I made my wife take to the drag strip in Dallas on saturday then to the NMRA shootout the next day, sunday in Houston, she's way over the top more so than I.
And the GT350 I built, Tom calls it the "Unicorn", as an update the car was purchased by a new owner from Tenn. and I hope to be talking with him fairly soon, as I have a few things he may want to add to the cars history.
Tom and I have drug each other into all sorts of crazy :q:q:q:q over 20 plus years :shifty:
Speaking of dragging, so you want me to go ahead and get that KB 2.8h w/twin 77mm t-body, ready to install for you when you come down the 28th??? :steering
BTW, since you liked those links I'll dig up some more you can look at.

PS. before we go for a ride maybe you should know that ticket can be had in less than 13 seconds for 150mph:
YouTube- VID00006
This standing start to 152mph cost me $632 and about 20-30min on the side of the road talking my way out of not going to jail.
