Haven't seen any activity on the CRII forum lately. How's everyone's builds and mods going?

Couple more hours...
Coil over chassis about done
Finishing the new style adjustable a arm brackets with/without antidive
Painting the a arms and chroming the brackets all that’s left to do
Making a standard dash in a Classic Roadsters mould as practice for the top
How to chop the top is planed and the jig table is under construction
Doing a NASCAR style template for roof shape
Chopped Chromed Toasted “Classic Roadsters 427” is about to happen
Van Halen Red with “JUMP” plates
Party On

I sold my CR 427 street "BRG 427S/O 5-speed" to a very good friend last year, but it only lives 10miles away, with its new garage mates. 2-FFR Daytona's (Both Russ Thompson builds) and a 65 Black with gold ghost stripes Mustang fastback, we call "The Beast" 347 supercharged 5-speed. One of the Daytona will be up for sale soon, to make way for a (ERA, Superformance?) GT-40. So anyone looking for a very nice Daytona coupe PM me. Cheers TommyRot.

Hey Kevin. Been keeping busy. I painted it over the weekend and pulled it out of my booth yesterday! I’ll polish it out and start putting it back together. It’s getting closer every day.

Very nice, love the red. What red is it?

Alfa02 · #8 (**permalink**) 01-27-2022, 01:36 AM

True Story, Ken Miles Sec. told me back in the day, that color was called "FU ENZO Red" Only they said the two words rather than just FU

Cheers TommyRot.

Hi Razor. Thanks. I almost hate to say it, but it’s Victory red. (A Chevy color) I painted a customers 77 Blazer the same colors and loved it.

I'm busy moving my CRII from CA to it's new home in AZ where it will now get driven because the insurance as "classic car" is affordable.

Waiting on the painter to get mine finished, lots to do when I get it back,

Bulldog · #14 (**permalink**) 02-03-2022, 02:40 PM

Tom did you sell that Holman Moody 427car .this is Bulldog,

Alfa02 · #15 (**permalink**) 02-03-2022, 04:21 PM

I did Bulldog, with a heavy heart. But I sold to very good friend in our Core Group, he lives 10miles from me, so I see it often. His Collection has some fantastic cars in it, so it went to great home. I was Cobraless for 6-months, worse 6months of my life

But now I'm back with a Pacific Roadster (Salem Ore.) wide body 347DartMotor (550HP) 5-speed, 3700 miles, the gentleman I brought from was cost no object build, it's as nice as the Green 427 car. Good to see your still around, Brent & I are pulling to Boulder Colo. (Shelby American Collection) in Sep 2,3,4 to hang with those boys, we both have Silver with gray Stripe Cobra (Twins) Call me or I'll call you Cheers TommyRot

See you there. I try to go every year. Used to live there and go 3-4 times a year, now it's our annual excursion.

Tony, we look forward to meeting up you. Steve promised some (treats) if we come (How could we turn that down

) A couple other club members may make it, that haven't been there before too. Spoke with Allen (Grant) yesterday he will be there for sure, had a heart issue in Dec. but is fine now, and ready to carry on. Cheers TommyRot.

Or maybe not... I just found out that the service for a friend that passed away recently will be some time during the summer, but no known date. I missed last year's Shelby American Collection party because of another service that happened to be scheduled the week before. So it all depends on when things line up. Will keep you posted.
