Rummy gets a second chance.

[scestes]

So I've taken on another project. Rummy is his name and he's minus an engine, a transmission, a radiator (and a few other engine components) as well as two seats. My girlfriend has expressed interest in doing some track events and I'd like to have a car that perhaps my brother and his wife can drive at track days that I attend. Having a backup car is always a plus. Rummy already has tii brakes, large rear brakes, and an upgraded suspension already. What the poor guy really needs is the engine bits, and a paint job. The rust that is visible on the trunk lid is about all there is. It's a solid car. Here are a couple of pics.

If you decide to make it a track day car, and feel that you don't need that back bumper, please let me know. I can find a good home for it.

Kindest Regards,

Justin

That kind of reminds me of my wife. At first, she was mad when my son and I showed up with a beat-up '72, but then I told her we could vintage race it, and she completely turned around.

I think her exact words were "Oh, that's great!" Then I told her we could probably make it nice for about $12k, and she said "whatever!" So now I don't even have to worry about the budget!

Well, I've had a bit of a delay in working on this car because she insists that I work on the CS first and NOT spend any money right now on this car unless deals come around that are just too good to pass up. I've been making slow but steady progress on my CS, but my brother is getting married in a week and a half, and then my girlfriend and I are moving into a large house in June or July. So the brakes are no to save for moving expenses, but I'm going to end up with a 3 car garage vs my current 1 car garage. I'll be a happy man with the new garage which she is dubbing my "cave".
