Had about 30 minutes to kill before I got off work, so I gave it a quick once over under the hood. Still have to do a thorough cleaning under there, but looks better than it did. Still a work in progress, but it's getting there. Not a 4V, and not as clean as some on here, but whatcha think?

Ha, a little Simple Green, a little tire shine, a few rags, and a LOT of elbow grease, and will take A LOT more elbow grease when I go to give it a thorough cleaning.

It is, and I am on it. I am not the only member on here with a Vic. And this is the Capital area forum, not the main forum. I go to some meets with this group, so why am I not allowed to post on here? I didn't post in the Ga. area forum. And none of the other guys in this area seem to mind.

I like the guys in this area on this forum, they are a cool group, not sure why this would offend you since it is a Panther platform car at least, and it is in the Capital area forum and not the one for your area...

Don't pay any attention to him, none of us do. Besides, he'll be gone soon enough.

You are exceptional at being an ass.

You should keep your mouth closed more often.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the support. I do want a Marauder eventually though. It would just require me to sell my vic and come up with whatever amount I would need after that..

But until that happens, I still love my Sport..

It's hard to part with something you invested to hard in and start over, believe me I know..

I want to get started on my next venture too, problem is I am addicted to this dumb car, so for now, no '29-'31 Ford Tudor rat...

Just enjoy what you have, it's better than most have. That's my philosophy.

If you REALLY want a marauder then save up and get one, but that money would be well spent in a 4V conversion...eaton...you know! Either way love the car bro sounds good!

Nice job! I'd hang and clean with you anytime!

Home Depot has a new micro fiber clean towel Sale... I think it is 20 towels for $9.99. Bought the towels for the beast I don't even have yet.

Your ride is sweet!

Man, that Vic looks so sharp, I cut myself just looking at it ! Ouch !
That car is a beauty & a testament to your care & treatment. And that is a hard color to keep clean, too! You must have biceps like Ray Lewis from all the polishing ! :)

Thanks man, your Sport is super clean, you don't need to do anything to it, it's already pretty sweet. You looking to do any mods to it?

Yes, Everyone I have met from here so far is super friendly and really cool.
