Toddler_BobbyP Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 OMG....opened my e-mail and the Chief Editor of Nissan Performance Magazine writes, asking: "I've followed your rear disc-brake conversion thread on your '87 Pulsar and your interest in performing a yet-undone engine swap...I would like you to do a write-up of your projects for the magazine, let me know what you've got so far. --M. Young" I spilled my coffee...my finches screamed me out for it. I never would've ever remotely dreamed this would happen! I'm SO psyched! Link to comment
DollyDiaper Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 This could be the start of something big! What are you waiting for, get writing I've no interest in cars, as long as they go, that'll do for me, but hope iyour article goes down well.. D lly Link to comment
Toddler_BobbyP Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 Thanks, Dolly! This isn't what I was seeking out to begin with, but then again sometimes the kewl stuff in life finds you instead of the other way around, right? That's the beautiful mystery of life... Link to comment
DollyDiaper Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I hope you call your car by name (Bridget, didn't you say? ) in the article you write, or is it meant to be serious and techy/mechy? Although, come to think of it, I can't imagine you writing, even on a serious subject, without injecting a bit of humour! As you say, some of the best things in life happen when you least expect them and when you're not actively looking. I also hope it's shaping up well. When's your deadline? D lly Link to comment
Toddler_BobbyP Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 Oh, sorry 'bout that: Bridget actually has a 'supporting role' in this tech article (She 'supports' the parts that are part of the swap! LOL). The editor wants a photo/text how-to article with blueprints on the conversion. So, out with the digicam and wrenches! Bridget's gonna be a STAR! Link to comment
Frink Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 congrats, man. Wish I had a car... Link to comment
Morv Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Sweet Bobby. Hope the article goes well. BTW, Bobby, that Ray Thomas quote is one of my favorites from the Moody Blues. Link to comment

Well it's obvious what you need to do to make a bundle of $$$.Make sure you hide in the text and pictures clues to the meaning of life or some other hockum subject Link to comment
