So happy for both Wayne and Tim!




Wayne, your beautiful wife Cindy put up a heck of a fight. She was a true warrior. Thanks for the messages all along. You rock...

After a long and laborious process (due to US Customs), Plain Jane landed yesterday. By a stroke of luck, the temps were in the 20's as opposed to below zero like it was earlier in the week. As one can imagine, a car with the characteristics Plain Jane possesses, it was still not happy starting out of the trailer. Nonetheless, I got it running and is now safe and warm in the shop.

Once the car was up to temp, I was pleasantly surprised with how docile the car is, especially when compared to the L88 in the HM Camaro. I suppose you could say the size of the motor adds manners.

I was on a tight schedule yesterday. In the short time I looked the car over, I don't know that Wayne's pics did the car (and his work) the justice it deserves. It's a stud! I'll get up close and personal with the car tomorrow.

I'll say it again Wayne.......you were a true gentleman to deal with. Furthermore, very accommodating with the shipping delays. Through it all and more importantly, I feel like I gained a friend.

More to come!

Thank you for the kind words Tim. I did set it up to be a bit soft on the bottom end, out of respect for the little tires out back (P275-60 Drag Radials)…, and I think that helps with the manners. I hope you have as much fun with Jane as I had. For me the build is the big pleasure. And I too believe I gained a new friend. You’re in good hands Jane! W
