[QUOTE="Woodstock Car Guy, post: 7390, member: 243"] Very nice restoration on the '80 vette. Now that's the stuff I like to read about. I get inspired when I read (and see the pics) of someone with a great passion and talent for this hobby or should I say [I]black-hole obsession[/I]. I've been down a much similar road having previously owned 173 different vehicles. Still enjoying my first vette and its' this forum that helps keep me pumped. Once any vehicle I owned was repaired, fixed or modified to my satisfaction, I'd usually get bored and see some other challenge that I think I'd like more. I do miss a few of them and unfortunately wasn't even wise enough to take a few pics. But I'm sure most of us have had some rides we wish we had now. Recently, I had an opportunity to ride my buddies new '09 Hayabusa and quickly realized that this thing was much faster that my skills could manage. This was definitely the fastest acceleration I'd ever experienced riding or driving. Not even sure that any riding school could enable me to challenge the bike to its full potential. 2 years ago, after much, much encouragement from my family, I sold my last bike with the promise not to buy another. They were concerned about someone not seeing me on a bike and right (or wrong) the bike rider looses. Look forward to hearing the progress and congrats again on the splended work on your project.
