Yes after all kinds of life changing events I have returned to the good folks here.
In no particular order:

My ex who left me for some guy is upset because he won't leave his wife. I just love that.

Met a school teacher in Butuan City, Philippines. I will be visiting in December. If I don't make it back I will be sure to put in my will to have my diecast sent to you all.

I pulled the 393 out of my Saleen and put the original motor back in with a supercharger and tremec 5-speed.

But most shocking of all is that I who have only loved Fords above all else bought a 67 RS/SS big block Camaro.

Now granted it is not factory original anymore. The 396 was pulled out to put in a 800 h.p. 510 cubic inch big block. The motor needs a sleeve and a piston and then I will off for fame and glory in Super Pro and S/ST classes.
The car ran a 10.0 at 134 in 1/4 mile with a throttle stop so I am guessing it will run maybe 9.40's if I don't chicken out and leave the throttle stop on. http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p122/ir8vermin/c7.jpg

My diescast collecting has been a bit lax with exception of Japanese stuff

I still owe Ward some cars which I will send free of charge since he has waited so patiently for two months. You have to wait another week though my friend.

Welcome back!

Love the Camaro, love the new collection additions (quality over quantity), and love the ironic ex-wife twist.

OK, let's run through a few quick points....FIRST, welcome back! We missed you around here.

Second, love you playen with the Saleen, cars are to have fun with and I dig you swapping power around. Nothing against the all orgional approch, just not for me.

Last, LOVE THAT BAD BOY CAMARO!! Keep up updated with the progress, I am so jealous!

Notice I said nothing about the women, that's another whole thread! And don't worry about my cars, whenever is fine and do let me know that total.

Again, welcome home!
Ward
