DUDE! I have such a deal for you...
From Mr.John "Muffin Man" Brown.

OK, seriously,
John here, semi amatuer autocrosser, procrastinator and self proclaimed automotive ADD sufferer. So I got my X-ratty back from the old challenge and I was going to put a rotary in it , megasquit and turbo it when I realized I needed a custom subframe from a 72 Vega, which ironically has the same wheel base. But at the local Pick-a-Scab had a 72 Coraolla Wagon, so I started thinking Twin Cam turbo and paint it orange like the 510 wagon on Snoop Doggs last
Album. 'Cept I get vanity plates that say "Muffdawg." I got the Rolla home, went to the DMV for the plates which were already taken, by the time I got home, the missus informed me the Wagon needed to go or I'd be sleeping in it. By the time I got back from Joey's I was pretty wired so I resumed watching season 2 of the Rockford Files, and it hit me, no one has done that car at the Challenge! So I got online and found this; http://www.camarosandfirebirds.com/page-2054.html I called the guy and traded a used Washing machine, two dozen eggs and the Beetle. So as I was tearing it down, then I started thinking about the Firebird from Corvette Summer. What a cool car. Bad shirt and Maek Hamil could never pass for a teen, but Annie Potts still has that voice that kinda does it for me. Anyway, I find a Formula hood that fits and started down that road, and then I realized Why am I even screwing around with the Firebird?!? The Vette is the star! So I traded the Firebird, Afro Van and a case of Old Milwakee for this; Corvette. Now I got most of the firberglass cut and laid and was in negotiations for a left hand drive unit from Austraillia but the deal fell through. So I immediately thought of you and figured you could make this happen, you know, cuz you got that down under hookup thing happening. I am actually looking to sell the whole deal becuase my neighbor just put his Datsun 510 up for sale and I love those old golfball texture hubcaps. So let me know, I 'll make you a deal.
I will appreciate a prompt response from you.
Yours faithfully,
Mr.John Brown.
Kidding JB, ya know I love ya.
IF you get him to show up in person AND he is wearing an uncomfortable looking mexican wrastler mask, it's the real deal.
Wow... Trolls are trolling the Megatroll?
And Mental, I was watching Emergency One not the Rockford files. The Video store only has Emergency one and Dobie Gillis on Beta and since I only have Beta I can only watch Emergency One or Dobie Gillis. And I only traded the interior from the Beetle, because the air bags in the seat make for sweet ejector seats if put in a Miata. Since I traded them I got three wheel studs from a 1974 Isuzu through another deal with a monk from Collie-Rod-Oh.
