ANOTHER project... ( off topic )

paz ( my fiance ) just picked up a 1975 pontiac astre ( think vega ) hatchback, no motor or trans. it previously had a sbc v8, so we are gonna do a 327/th350 swap in it, this will be her daily driver. and its gonna be white with neon pink stripes ( *her* "with glitter in the pink, hon! " *me* " ok , babe. whatever you want..." ) and a neon pink motor......shes 100 % filipino, so that helps explain it. with 300+hp and 2400lbs,it should be fun ! we towed it home with the hillbilly limousine, couldnt even feel it back there at 55mph on the freeway. man, you gotta love a girl that can see what something could be instead of what it is... then again i think thats why she picked me in the first place.......AND she works at checkers / oriellys...hot hot HOT.......
