Two non corvette pictures on one page @jimmydean you are on a roll


:busted:
Every damn day I get an email with a bunch of interesting cars for sale. It sucks being broke with no room to work on anything. It's even worse now that I've seen GFF's new shop setup.

Like a '62 Impala SS 4 speed. :drool:

Oops.



In what may set a record for the most expensive car crash in Chinese history—and rank among the most costly drunk-driving crashes worldwide–a 26-year-old man was being held by Chinese police after wrecking a rare Koenigsegg Agera R, with a value north of $4 million.

Glass Opal.
The green inclusions are Hyalite. They aren't really green. They just appear so. I don't know how or why.....

Opal's color comes from light refracted off water molecules trapped within the matrix of the stone. Theoretically, opal is the only gemstone that would have no color in the absence of light.

Never heard of glass opal though.

That ramp looks a lot more stable than the stack of bricks we used. :panic:
Bricks? You had Bricks? Luxury.

We had scrap wood, 2x4's if lucky, usually with a piece of janky plywood half cracked in the middle supported by more scrap wood. Hit it, fix it, hit it, fix it, rinse and repeat as required.

The only thing bike wise that was different was that by this time I had a set of primitive low mx style bars and a normal saddle. But the attitude on display was basically our whole crew.
