New old guy

When I got my '73 Z/28 it wasn't even a year old. Drove it stock for a while until I trashed the engine racing my room mate's Trans Am. Rebuilt the engine in the kitchen, broke it in then added the turbos. Got squirrely one day took out a fence and a dogwood tree. She has not been on the road in almost 30 years now. Now that the kids are gone and the house is almost paid off I'm itching to dig her out of the garage and finish what I started.

Welcome to the club!

Your story gives me hope for my car, except I don't really have a place to put it for the next 20 years.
