Life altering decision
While helping in the preparation of ‘Ratilla the Hun’ (Sean’s rat rod project) I have decided that I need a hot rod in my life. I believe its the missing piece in my life that I have been searching for since I first saw the movie American Graffiti and fell in love with John Milner’s ’32 Ford Douce Coupe. The decision I am up against is selling Emmy (my ’99 BMW M3) and possibly my BWM F800ST motorcycle in order to take on such a project. Keep in mind that this hot rod must become my daily driver so my dream of a monster big block engine will have to wait for the next project as this rod must have a covered bonnet (aka hood) so I can drive it in the rain. I’m currently researching the Factory Five ’33 Hot Rod kit car that I believe will fulfill my daily driver requirement. I’m thinking a Ford RacingĀ 4.6L Aluminator crate motor with Whipple supercharger (Though the supercharger could wait awhile) with a T-56 Manual 6-speed Tranny behind it. I need some feedback as well as some reality checks of what you all think. My perception of what is realistic is often skewed by my ridiculous dreams and the fact that I tend to overkill everything I do.

Screw what others see as reality, take YOUR dreams and MAKE them reality!
The missing piece in your life is a woman/[CENSORED] not a car. Duh!
