Geez, I thought I was a bit wierd being able to remember phone numbers, you guys ARE like rainman being able to remember those codes!  Yes, that was a compliment.  I was told and maybe you guys can verify if it was true, that plum crazy was actually first called
statutory grape but that was to offensive for the public so it was then called plum crazy?  If true I'd like Mark know and maybe it's worth mentioning.

I thought this weeks episode was on the neutral side.  Also was hoping for a bit more on the cars but I'm patient and know what he's trying to improve in S 3.  I know they are ready to paint my car but still trying to figure out some last minute details that would be obtainable without any cost.

I have an idea for the show. Maybe they could do a segment each week on someone's Mopar. There are a lot of nice Mopars in that part of the world. Would love to see a segment on Dane's new clone when it's finished. They could do a walk around video and a driving video like they do on My Classic Car. If they weren't so far away, I would take my bird by there and do a few burnouts and a few donuts in the parking lot. 

[Homerr]

I like the idea.  I wouldn't mind seeing a 'critique' of a Mopar by Mark as long as it was more about the knowledge of the hobby and not just being critical.  Some could be judged as correct show cars, some as drivers.

[r4daytona]

Not a bad idea, I'll mention it to him.  I just booked a flight to go there so I will be there to do some work from March 28 to April 5th.  SHould be fun and I will mention that idea.  Not that I have that much say, but I do think it might be fun to do occassionally.  So for the oregon guys, feel free to contact me and maybe we can meet up. Here's some pics.  Since I didn't have the original hood, Mark wanted to do it as correct as possible so he removed the ribs from under the hood. I think it's in fresh primer.  Another of the nose being mocked up and the fender hole.

[Homerr]

Just to add to that idea - Mark sort of did this with the red '70(?) with the black rump stripe.  Talking about the originality of the car during the segment was cool.

And good to see the progress on the Daytona!

for those wondering, I am getting Z-braces from Rick Fairless.  His have the correct indent and will look much better.

can i buy your old ones ??

[ACUDANUT]

His show needs to like American Restoration. They show every item that start with,  from beginning to end in every show.

[r4daytona]

I agree with you somewhat.  It would be nice to see one car completed, and if it was a custom job with 40-50 people like Overhaulin it could probably be done.  But with only a few guys and trying to turn them back to factory specs. it's physically impossible now.  One of his goals like i've mentioned before is to have a car started and completed at least within a season.  That would be nice.

That though depends on the time frame.  Mark does all the filming and editing out of his own pocket first and then sells the show.  So if nobody picks up the show, he's out all that time and money.  Now, if for example,a network buys Season 3 at a decent price, he could hire more guys to get the cars done quicker.  As long as the network allowed a fair time frame to get the Season filmed, Mark could possibly get teh cars done in each season.

When I'm up there the first week in April I'll take pics of the shop and cars. Anxious to see my car!!

[ACUDANUT]

I think American restoration has about 15 employees ?  I wish Buzzard Beak would add a few more employees and he could really turn a car around and a Big dollar.  he could then would own the Mopar TV world.

Damn Stuart, you're more up to date on pics than I am !  Then again, I forget to look.  I promise I will take LOTS of pics of all the cars when I'm there and post them in Aero and the Car guys discussion.  He got the fit on the doors pretty good.  I hope it's not too much work to re-do when he gets the new z braces from Rick Fairless. Mark didn;t mind that he kind of has to check the fit again -- somewhat.  If anybody ever has questions about the car or show feel free to call (716)549-1756 I live on the east coast so If you can try to make it before 10pm eastern.
