Just finished up my 1st year of college. It went well enough. Im glad to take a break for the summer though! Took up so much time I couldnt spend usual insanely excessive amounts of time surfing the forum. But it is summer and the ol heavy chevy is headdin back into the garage for sum updating. The 454 is coming out and hopefully toredown to begin its transformation into a groud pounding monster. Along with some chassis mods to back up the beast. And a set of bags to lay it low. I have a good summer job and expect to again frequent the forum.

Glad to have you back also! What year was your 454?

**68 Stepside** · 05-17-2003, 09:35 PM

I was just checking up on you the other day man....had seen you haven't posted since march. Good to have you back.

Still a lousy laborer...I work for D.O. Creasman out of the mango/seffner area now, we've got the area verizon contract.

Would you happen to have a car show schedule for the Tampa area, or know where I could find a good one? I'm really getting the "itch" to get out to some shows.

Welcome home.

HvyChevy454 · 05-18-2003, 06:24 PM

yeah its been awhile,
i havent got the bags yet, but they dont seem to look too difficult
the motor is a 91 TBI, the TBI intake is for sale along w/ harness.
yeah my dad is still working for Verizon, he might have to head up to NC though cause the talk around town is they are gonna strike. on the car show spectrum they are all over! classic wise there is a show every weekend sat afternoon, I belive in Zephyrhills, then Dade City, then New Port Ritchey, then Plant City. All are very large
and located in the downtown historic districts of each town. there is also a show at the checkers on fletcher and dale mabry on saturday nite.

Hey'

I have been trying to make a flip down light and have kinda given up on the Idea. But if you could give me some help with the mod I may restart the project. I tried to use a gas door hinge from a mustang but I can't see how that hinge would work. Any help would be great

Thanks.

**68 Stepside** · 05-22-2003, 07:36 PM

Dude...don't tell me verizon might strike, that would put me out of work too......

I know you had told me a long time ago about the checker's car show....I couldn't remember what night it was for sure, and haven't made it up there, even though it's only about 5 minutes from the house, at the most

.

I'll have to check out the other shows....I get extremely bored on the weekends...just working on the stupid dodge...LOL
