Hey;
Just struck a deal with Fran and placed the order for an SL-C. Late in '08, I was putting the final paperwork together on getting an Ultima order when Paul Champlain mentioned the SLC. It's an amazing blend, Hot Rod meets Enzo! After 2 visits to Detroit and 200-300 emails and phone calls, finally bite the bullet.
With this stellar economy, i've gotta go low budget with the LS376 and a G50. My grand vision of LS7 with Ricardo followed the Dow Jones, to a 50% reduction in cost.
I've gotta say this will be my first build and I'm a little nervous. i haven't really messed with cars since my '68 and '70 Mustangs. i think i Carter was in the White House back then.
It's been a great help stalking Mesa's and Howard Jones build logs and various SLC threads. I think you guys are pros. Without these threads, i'd have probably been back to a GTR due to 20 years of those threads. But realized with 20 year old threads you get a 20 year old car.
I hope if i get stuck I can pitch a few questiosn the way of the community. From what I've seen, theres a blogger with expertise in all areas.
Now i just gotta bite my fingernails for 4 months waiting. That'll give me time to throw out all my wifes stuff out in the garage! OK, i have some junk too...
