Super excited to be back!!

Some of you may know me, I spent alot of time on 3GO when it was around and did alot of Nor-Cal events including cruise's, drag racing, and even the big Vegas trips. Well that was 10 years ago and since then I had sold all three of my Z's. Well today I got my very first car back, my original Bad406z. It was my first car and real passion. I got it back as just a rolling caged chassis... nothing else. it's gonna need some love but it's gonna get it. So please stay tuned because the Bad406z will be back!!!

Re: Super excited to be back!!

Glad you found your way back after 8 years! I remember you from the 3GO boards, but I think you were on your way out by the time I was checking in there.
Feel free to put your contact info in the sticky and I'm sure you may have some ideas for GTGs too.

Re: Super excited to be back!!

No real timeline but definetly would like to get it going asap. I'm thinking I may go back to where I left off and make it a full blown drag car. It literally is just a caged rolling chassis. I miss going to the track big time and being that its so stripped this seems to be the best way to go. I'm excited!

Re: Super excited to be back!!

I think it's great that you got your first hot-rod back. That makes you one of the really lucky few. Mine got burnt to the ground in a shop fire while getting the trans linkage adjusted. Then I let the wife talk me into selling the 2nd one to help with the down payment for our first house. It paid for the garage, or so I keep trying to tell myself....
