What kind of long term projects are you not working on....?

Looks good, Joe! Never thought you were an Excalibur guy, though.

Actually, it's not an Excalibur, it's a replica of a 1936 Mercedes Marlene. My grandfather built the car in the late 80's. It's a kit car, built onto a 1974 Mustang II chassis with it's 2.8 Cologne V6 and Ford 4 speed manual. Currently needs an oil pan, clutch cable, and figure out why the clutch won't disengage.
 
Redid the exhaust for the 51 F1. New knockoff Flow Super10s and old C4 Vette tips, old extra pipe from a different exhaust. Sounds really mean now. I just finished the cam swap and new timing chain install. Cleaned the injectors and it seems to run much better. Still need to swap the trans and wrap the headers. Replumbed the radiator and added my cookie sheet fan shroud.

My daily driver has been sitting in my garage with a head partially pulled for about 13 months...if that counts. I guess I cant really call it a daily driver at this point.

Is that the FWD Toronado 455 setup? Like from "Stripes"

Yes, or Anchorman, but instead with a .040" over full roller fool injected 1 7/8" primaried ARPed Cadillac 500. Passes everything but the gas station.

Should have used a less wild cam, only pulls 11" at 975rpm so it's got a a vacuum pump off a CTS for the brakes. But then FWD burnouts might not be possible.
