Good excuse, but then again, any excuse is a good excuse.

With the temperature hovering around 100 degree and high humidity, I just decided I couldn't go out in my car today. Instead I grabbed the charcoal from beside it and smoked some pork and ribs today.

Had some help from a friend most of the day.

Ray, your car is beautiful and I just love shadow gray and the white interior is just a plus. How much would it take for you to sell it? Because I'll always be interested. Are those the original color combos btw?

Car has it's original color, but originally came with black interior. My first car I started was shadowgray but had the white. I think the white give it the wow factor over the black. I would not let this car go for less then 40k for all the work and time I have invested in this car. This is 6 1/2 years of waiting, looking for original parts and who knows how many hours I have invested in this car. Thanks for your kind words. It will be in it first car show on Saturday.

Whenever your ready to sell let me know, I really want to own a shadow gray 70 and still keep the 69. Then I could have my own mini collection.

I hope you have good luck and take home a big trophy!
