Wow! Really should have sold for $35k, PLUS $22k! Guess you really don't get back what you put in as far as mods go! Wild looking car!

Good luck with it!

To bring everyone up to speed. The PPI went well.... only a funny story, I hope. (Shannon you are going to have to trust me on this one.)

I checked the oil yesterday, wanted to bring it up to exactly full. It was maybe 1/4 quart low. So I whip out the oil, exent the fill tube and pour away (as I have done a million times)...... 1/4 quart.... man it's not going up like I expected?????? 1/2 quart????.... something is wrong..... The fill tube was split and dumped 1/4 quart all over the side of the engine.

Mind you, as long as I have owned the car, the engine has been done dry, I have never spilled a drop..... Day before the PPI I douse the engine. PPI shows possible oil leak.......
