Hey Jeff, you may want to start a new thread on doing your garage floor. Many of us have something like this in mind for future projects and would like a blow by blow on the good and the bad of these products... 

Steve... I took your advice and did just that.. I wanted to wait till I was done to do it...

Now the finish on the floor will match the finish on the car under the lights. Should look cool together....

Looks great Jeff.  When you coming to Florida to do mine.. It's only 28' X 45'.. Unless you want to do the garage attached to the house too... That would add another 400 SF.... I don't know if I can afford the materials for the driveways though... They would have to be something like 280 X 12 and 20 X 36.  Can you do all that in a weekend??  :rofl:

I think this is one of their cars . http://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/1480080654.html

EDITED:

I think he forgot to put the decimal in.  
That thing is whipped!
I will say this though, you absolutely know what you are getting if you decide to take this one on.  Somebody can bring it back from the grave I'm sure. I know a  few guys in Mass that could get it done no sweat.

Hey Jeff, Believe it or not, there is a good possibility of snow here on Friday.  :eek2:

I didn't see any new pictures with your buddy with his White 1970 Trans Am, when are you going to be doing more shots with it? Is he still around?

Snow, in Texas?!?!?!?!

The White '70 T/A... Chris... Well, his car's away for the winter, so he's not really around.. Chris is a great guy with a really cool car.. Hopefully in the Spring we can coordinate and get it done.  :cheers: :cheers:

Ok, you guys will know this one... Does a (new) crate motor come with a fuel pump?? Mine's smoked.. Just curious if we're going to find that it was a POS BK Special or something that came with the motor. :popcrn:

I'm guessing Jon might want to outfit that beast with an electric fuel pump, no?

Cool.. I kind of figured that, so BK probably threw on what they had on the shelf...

Yes. 

I don't see you getting butchered, but you can simply choose to not click on this link or unsubscribe to the link.  In reality, what does the amount of replies matter to you anyway. Live and let live.  :2thumbs: :icon_smile_big:

Um.. let me guess, Your asking this because none of your threads has ever reach this many replys before?  :lol: 

Why is a thread with 4000 replies to something folks likes talking about is a bit extreme to you? so far you are mostly the only one complaining about it  :lol: 

A guy bought a charger because he always wanted one, went to have a roll bar installed in the car and found out the car's shape, came here and made a thread about it to show others and also warn others. Had the car completely rebuilt where alot of folks would have just taken and thrown in the towel because they didn't want to do it and left yet another charger die. He didn't used a parts charger but rather all new stuff so he kinda did save another charger out there because he didn't use one for parts  :lol: . This guy stuff alot out to have this car rebuilt right and yet you ask why is this thread so interesting for folks and and for some many replis. Well son, they like this thread I guess and that is why it has so many replis for where as alot of other stuff doesn't have that many replys.  :smilielol: 

You give the folks something they like and they will come back again and again and I guess this thread is one of those good things  :smilielol: 

Jeff has my respect for what he did for this car, there should be more guys like him and also women to do stuff like this all the time for cars of past years.
