point was so we could have a reference on the GTO... i mentioned the thread earlier so i posted it as a reference... from what you said it dont seem like the car needs all that much work... driving in 4 days is what yo usaid there... drivable would be engine, transmission and suspension... now 4 days is a lot shorter than 3 weeks... so which statement is true? 4 days or 3 weeks? oh.. .and i forgot... you counted paint in the 3 weeks.. ok... 4 days or 2 weeks (if your painter is slow)
and its obvious you feel you always have to top everyone... i mean... just read that thread and then maybe you'll realize why i said i thought you'd try to make something up...

i hate to burst your bubble but i gave that time frame at the time i thought i had all the engine parts for that motor, it turns out that the cyl heads i was given wernt the matching heads to that motor and other minor engine parts are missing, transmission ended up not being rebuilt like i was told, suspension was cut out because the car was once used as a low rider that had hydros in it, do you understand? or can you still not contomplate the 3 week time frame?

Hrrmmmm.... you haven't set me straight... not exactly sure what straight-setting you've been doing... but ok... and the suspension stuff dont take that long... friend of mine converted his '69 maro (yes... same mechanic family guy) to disc brakes without any help aside from help lifting things on one saturday... and them conversions have a lot to do with the suspension... now i dont know much about low-riders and all that shit they do to their cars... but it shouldnt be that hard to fix... and even if it does take 3 weeks... thats a shorter period of time than the period you have wasted by doing nothing with the car... lets see here... you posted asking about parts in January, which can make one assume you got the car either in January or before then... so... the car was received in January... that would give you about 6 months to have worked on this.. seems to me like a business man would have noticed the value of the GTO and would have capitalized on the investment... because remember... time is money and the car has just been sittin there for 6 mos now... 1 of those months its even been for sale... oh... and another thing... a business man does not put his customers on strict regulations and regiment what they can and can't do with his product... i do seem to remember you not wanting to sell the car to a friend of mine who would have put a chevy engine in it... a strict business man would have recognized him as a customer and sold it no matter if he wanted to buy the car just so he could plink holes in it with his new rifle or if he wanted to restore it to factory original condition with a full Frame Off Restore...
Oh... and cylinder heads for a 400Big Block... not that hard to come by... believe it or not... that is a fairly common engine... especially in GTOs... and minor engine parts... how minor are we talking? most minor parts are generic for the make and size of the engine... but then again... i dont know what you would consider minor... i'm sure some ppl would consider the cam minor.. or hell... the main bearings might be considered minor... but for the most part minor parts are minor hassles in general...
And the 3week time frame is not at all a problem for me to contemplate or grasp... 3 weeks is a reasonable time... its that you think 3 weeks is too long for you to spend your precious time... hehe... and... since i know you're going to ask... the point of this post is to say that you have had ample time to work on the Goat and a true business man would have recognized the investment and capitalized...
now are you sure you're just not giving up on the job because you think it'll be too complicated and you're just not used to working on old cars right? just ferraris and porsches...
And is going to be my last post for the night... its goin on 2am here and I have a lot of work to do tomorrow.... I hope i dont disappoint you by going to bed since you won't have anyone to argue with anymore...
hehe...

it seems like every thing you refer to stuff dont take that long lol just like selling the car in a day right. i dont know if you take in consideration the time it takes to find the right parts and time to get parts, thats what seperates you from me i look at the big picture of things in a realalistic way, like i said you dont look at the big picture just because i have had the car for 6 months doesnt mean i have the time to work on it for 6 months, for christ sake ive only seen the thing about 4 times now not includeing pictures, and yes time is money thats why i was deadacated to a job and doing TV bs i dont do nothing like apperently your use to so i dont have the freedom to deadacate time to a project, why would i sell it to a friend of yours? first off i hardly believe you would have the money to buy it and secont your not even close to the car. i understand cylinderheads are not hard to come by for A key word A 400big block in fact i have acupple but i dont do that red neck thing if i was to build this motor i would have to find the same big valve # matching heads witch are not easy to find and are some what pricey. why are you repeating what i said previously about the 3 weeks to build it? i dont understand how you come off saying i think 3 weeks is to long when i was the one who said 3 weeks was the reasionable ammount of time to build it in the first place? what the fuck are you talking about? i understand you cant arguewith me any more is that why you are talking out of your ass? is this the 4th or 5th arguement ive one on this site?

ok chadwick... the point of me saying that to you 3 weeks must be too long is because you won't give it the 3 weeks to increase the value of the car and therefore your profit...
About selling it to a friend of mine, i was just using that as an example of a potential customer you blew off.... and like i said earlier in this thread, he got himself a mustang, so it really doesn't matter... I was just using him as an example... and it really doesn't matter if I had the money or not... I dont want a 68 gto... If i were gonna get a GTO it would either be a '67 or '69 Judge... '68 dont appeal to me... and its a mute point anywayz because if I had $1500 to spend on a car it would be spent on my fiero...
Now i'm not exactly sure what you were saying... but i think it was something about me being used to having a ton of time on my hands or I do nothing? somethin like that? I lost ya somewhere in the horrid spelling and grammar... But.. I do not have a lot of time on my hands... I am a very busy person whether it be with my farm animals (which will be bringing me a lot of money come Tuesday when they go to the market) or with any of a number of construction projects i'm involved with...
Not sure if you can declare you WON this argument... or any argument for that matter.. most of the time, it seems to me, whoever you're bitchin at gets bored with your circular reasoning and just quits before he pisses off more forum members who read this shit... Now... so far the only point of mine you've even tried to refute was the time-table... which i have tried to explain to you numerous times... just doesn't seem like you understand... but read the first paragraph of this post numerous times and maybe you can begin to understand...
Oh... and its dedicate... not whatever the hell it was you typed...

and the point ive been proving despite the 3 weeks it takes to build the car theirs no telling when i would beable to sell a how you put it 5,000$+ car fast enough to make more money then if i was to buy and sell cars quick and pull in smaller but more amounts of profit, i can buy and sell a car just being the middle man and make 500-1000 in a week and a half so theres no point in doing what your telling me to. you know what i do know how to spell MONEY
