The car is in awesome shape just starting work on the engine this weekend so should be on the road before too long

heheh yea that lost me a little too..

fair enough you use "oldschool" in speech marks i agree.. what is the definition of oldschool now? 20 years 30 years or do we have to be talking classic sort of cars

Have to laugh really most of the old school cars that come up here are 60's 70s and 80's

Guy at work has a mint as 1938 Chev Coupe.. (see for sale section)

Will post pics asap
