Glad to see the site back up and running with only a slightly different look. Name is Keith and currently have an 85 MCSS and an 88 MCSS. The 85 is my favorite. Currently running a 355 with AFR heads and 10.5:1 CR. Plans keep changing on the rest of the car, but the 383 is still in the works. I've loaned the 5 speed out so I'm running on Automatic right now, but it hasn't been driven in a year and a half. It's also rolling on 17x8 ZR1 style wheels wrapped in 255-45-17 rubber. Front brakes are aluminum spindles and C5 Corvette rotors and calipers. Been converted to hydro-boost and braided brake hoses as well. Serp setup should be on this winter and A/C will be hooked up again as well. Not really needed with T-Tops though. Got a few frame braces attached and overall nice body. Got an outward dent in the hood when the alt. belt broke while the engine was spinning about 6500 RPM and a small crease in the fender from a novice fender lip roller. It's Silver with Oxblood interior and that's about all I've got to say right now. Trying to make a road course event coming up in May.  |

Welcome back Keith! Now have you had time to get anything done on the SS? Shamefully, not really. I got the AFR heads on and fired it up, thats about it. Gotta get me some heat in the garage so I can work on it. Got a friend who is needing help as well, so its time to help each other out. I have trouble getting motivated if its just me. |

Its been a while. Lots of work and not much time to BS around with the sites. Kind of sad really, because I don't think I got anything accomplished.

As I explained to Dave when he first mentioned the MCC Revival to me, I may be "leaving" the boards for a bit myself because of some personal issues. And, I haven't actually done that yet (well, at least not since last August) only because I have a feeling I won't get much accomplished anyway. *sighs* Cort | 35swm | "Mr Monte Carlo"."Mr Road Trip" | pig valve.pacemaker ...& now an uncle!WRMNshowcase.legos.HO.models.MCs.RTs.CHD = www.chevyasylum.com/cort"I can't take anymore" ... 3rd Eye Blind ...
