BTW, what do you do?
8-5 I'm a digital artist and network administrator for an architect. But I also keep, breed and study venomous reptiles and crocs.
I used to be an alligator wrestler, but I decided to study and educate instead of doing the big show daredevil thing.
I've worked with national geographic, was a consultant on the upcoming movie "Scorpion King" and am in the process of working on a movie for BBC/Animal Planet on Cobras among other fun little projects.
When I'm not doing any of that, I'm either working on or driving the $hit out of my S2K
Oh yeah, and my girlfriend fits in there somewhere!
hey, you asked!

Is that the 427 or the 289? Looks more like the 289, maybe cuz of the color. The blue looks much better IMO, with the white racing stripe! What engine option did he choose?

Hey V,
Were going to miss you tomorrow on our run.
I knew you had venomous snakes, but not cobras too. That one's a beaut.
Dude, you are freagin nuts! I love snakes but very much respect the fact that they can kill you enough not to play with them.
I love going to Gatorland and seeing those monster gators in the breeding marsh. We take a couple pounds of chicken when we go and watch em CHOW down. Theyre killing machines.

It's a 427s/c replica, hence the big ol' bulging rear fenders. It's made by Superformance. The engine was built locally, it's a bored and stroked all-aluminum 351 Cleveland. He says it puts out about 460hp, which after my ride with him, I'm not going to dispute!
