Hmmmmm, a '39 Chev coupe. This one's a lot cleaner than my old gasser, but it still stokes the memories. Good pics........Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Two dumb questions for you guys from this novice: 1: why is some cars lifted in the rear while others have their slicks on the hard?
2: what is with the large wrap stuff around some of the exhaust outlets, are they just heat shields or are they 4 into 1 set ups?
I known I should know but I have never been really into drags so I'm learning.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Exhaust collectors were discovered to help scavage the exhaust and that ere most were just 4 straight tubes(especially on supercharged engines)
Cars were set up higher for better weight transfer---before the days of 4 links-----
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
