Well, the old man is tired of having 2 trucks and a jeep. He decided to sell the nicest of them which was a 95 z71 with just over 100k on it. My opinion the best GM truck body style for the last 15 years. Anyway....the truck is leaving soon and all that will remain is our straight 6 swapped YJ (Jeep) with the converted S10 plowframe and plow and the 91 GMC 2wd longbed. Taking its place is a 1965 AC COBRA ROADSTER 289 (flatsides)....except it has a 302 in it with 350 hp.....I creamed my pants when he told me. Its getting dropped off next saturday for two days for us to test, one of which I guess I get to take it out :D. This is one of my favorite cars evar! Its got a jag IRS, tremec 4 speed, wire wheels, disc brakes, and 350 hp.....here is an example of what its going to look like.

Kit....bought from original owner, who is a friend of the old mans. Pops has worked on it for years so he knows it in and out. Was originally built to match the OEM perfectly. Was bought built by current owner for 38K and he put 15k into it. Not sure what the old man is paying for it, dont care....just hope I get to drive it at least a few times.....god I love these cars

To honor the occasion, tonight I will listen to Cosby's 200MPH bit and offer up a toast of Grandpa's old racing fuel/arthritis medicine/floor wax!
