Ran into Mr. Doctor at a friends barbecue last weekend here in Sac.

It's not done but I think I can post one here. I'm not on social media, so I will see how to do it here.
Ok, so, I tried to post a couple pics of pics because I really don't want to have to pull it out of the garage just to take pics for this, BUT it's saying the files are too large. When I am able to get to it and pull it out I will post some, if it will let me. However, this is either you believe me or not right now... oh well.
Oh, someone said through a thread here that he may work at one of the Gold's Gyms in Sac. I'm not sure which one, either mid-town or Citrus Heights or something, but if anyone knows the specific one, I'd like to drive the car down and let him see it again. I'd like to get the dashboard autographed too, but I haven't painted it blue yet; it's still the original mint green.

No, this is not the car. It is only shown slightly on his "Best Of" CD. He is sitting inside of it, and it shows nearly nothing of the outside due to it being a piece of junk. It had just a couple pieces of the side trim down the doors because it is hard to find for a 4dr. I since have found them all, but have yet to send them off to a repair / chrome shop. I have not replaced much of the chrome due to wanting to repaint it again.
I am trying to figure out how to send my phone pics to my email to see if they can post here, but I'm not tech savvy.
You can go to Amazon.com and locate his Best of CD and see the pic there. I am not an App person, so I do not know how to get pics from phone to here.
** Almost forgot, I did change the wire wheels to a set of 17" American Racing VN507 Rodder series rims. So, it looks a bit more hot rod now.

This is it now as of this year, 2022. I moved the exhaust again to the front of both rear wheels because new rims would not go on if I did not cut the pipes shorter. They used to extend out the rear of car when I first did them. It has two 40 series Flowmaster manifolds with 2" pipes. You can see the one pipe if you look.
It has a 327ci engine in it - bored out to 350HP. The engine came from a 1967 Impala SS that was numbers matching to the car that I had also owned, until I wrecked it badly, and eventually sold the body off - which I regret to this day. I kept the 327 engine for a long time, and when the 350 engine I had in the '63 Impala finally blew up, I transferred the 327 to it. The top end of the engine is all Edlebrock with the heavy billet aluminum valve covers and an Edlebrock RPM intake manifold. To tone down the gas budget, I have now placed a 600 cfm Edlebrock carburetor on it, so I can actually cruise it! lol. I also changed out the 350 Turbo 3-speed transmission I put in when I bought car, to now it having a 700r4 4-speed with overdrive for the highways.
** Oh, the windshield wipers were placed upward more than they should be when I had it painted the first time, but I am not doing any changes until I repaint it again since it has a few marks here and there from time and uncontrolable events. None of the the other chrome is on either, so no need for multiple pics. So there you have it!!

I have already stated that the Jerry G photo is not the car; I own it, I would know. That is a 1964 Impala on his cover, not a 1963 4dr. Impala. I had a picture of it on here already, but somehow it is gone now. Besides, I don't even think Doc has done anything musically related to, or with, Jerry G.
