Yup...David's buying in and getting back into the game.
 I heard he needs something to mount all his Cragar sale stock onto for pics. LOL!

You’re telling me I’m supposed to wait 500 miles before I beat on my autogear?? I don’t have that kind of self control… your car rules

My M23 got beat on around the 2nd or 3rd drive. I've been dropping the clutch at 7000 RPMs with slicks and shifting with my right foot on the floor ever since. I had to go with Amsoil MTG oil because of a thrust bearing issue.

You know...I spent three full days this week narrating video and prepping all the marketing materials and pictures to move this car along. Then I came back in here to read this thread... and then wham!
FULL STOP. So, what then happened to the grand idea of selling it? Simple answer! One good look at this thread from the beginning. I wasn't 40 pages into this thread when I said holy crap man...there was some amazing work that went into this car. Realization... The car cannot be sold!

I couldn't believe it when I read you were already thinking of selling it. About time you pulled your head out and looked at what you have. TENS of THOUSANDS of people would give their left arm for a car that nice....  They would need the right arm to shift... Congrats on your decision to keep it..

Chas,
To be completely honest...there have been a few traction control tests performed while the car was being setup.

 My issue is that I become somewhat bored of a project once it's been completed and usually end up moving them along. It's like, OK what's next. There's no doubt the car is a quality piece, I was simply thinking it's time to try something else after completing what is now my fifth Z/28 restoration. It's now my third one in the past 6 years, and thanks to Covid it is the fastest I have ever turned one around. I was also tempted to list this one on BAT just to see where it would land. The listing would have included a few hundred choice pics and a host of narrated video clips to really showcase the car, and then sit back to see what it would pull for bids? That was, until I looked back and saw all of the effort I put into this one. Viewing this thread again really made me appreciate the car on a new level. For at least the time being, it'll stay where it is while I look for my next project to restore. Maybe it's time for a 69 or 70 Chevelle? Going to keep my eyes open for the next project?

For those who haven't had enough Daytona Yellow, here are a few pics taken out along the Rockies last week while we were out for a good rip in the car. I stopped to cool it off while getting a great backdrop to shoot the car with.
