Always good to hear a new "pounder" fire up in the spring!!!!

Sweet sounds are about to pulse through the Neighborhood! Looking good Pro60, where is she going to run at first this year?

I am getting to put in the new goodies I bought this weekend. Nothing like a big rod run to stire the fires with-in. The car did really well, even running hard with new camaro for about 30 miles. I managed to get a big smile out of the guy seeing my old car and then he punched it and disappeared. I probly had her up over 90 and it was vibrating because of tires but pretty smooth other than that, I was very pleased. Since I changed the rear shackles and I now have functional rear suspension the car seems to lean more at speed. I am looking at some sway bars front and rear, a little shot of some of the guys and my car @ the nsra springfield event.

D'oh, anyway here is the picture.

I recognized the 1 in the middle.

Congrats Brick. Car LQQKs great.

Pro 60 if you ever plan on a RT66 run let us know here i need a good night out at the drags.


Brick your car is standing out even with the others about , Looking really good in the line up.

Our first outing will be at New England Dragway in Epping, New Hampshire this weekend, June 2nd.

We'll be driving right by RT66 on the way to Prozzzz's house in July on our way to Eddyville, Iowa, other than that one brief moment, that may be the extent of our long distance travels.

BTW, it get's loaded in the trailer tonight when I get home, then Friday we'll be off to the races!! WOOHOO!!

Thanks guys, man what fun that was. I love those big events and I love cruising there with all the guys.

I would love to be there for the first run Pro60, the best of luck.

Pro60 catch the light and give em He**, hook and dont look let em catch you when you brake.

Hey 60, if that chebbie is too fast for ya, I work cheap!!!!! When is the deal in Iowa, sure would like to get down there if I can arrange to be away from the shop when you are there!!!!!!!

It's July 13-14 Dave. Most everybody shows up sometime on Friday & the deal is all day Saturday. We had a blast last year.

Where the heck is Eddyville any how?

Just a few miles down the road from Oskaloosa.

Ok, Have to see what is going on by then. Hopefully I can get enough stuff kicked out of the shop to get away. Lots of stuff going on and more coming this summer..... Have to see how things are going by then, but it would sure be a blast!!!!

Dave, I could use an extra crew member, if you're interested.

Got a start on door hinges this weekend. I want the body to be a lift off deal so a simple tube to the roll cage would get in the way. I made body mounts on the inside of the door posts to the cage and am building aluminum lift off style hinges that will use 2 of the three original hinge mounting holes. The third hole is being relocated to shorten up the bolt pattern. Got about 1/2 the parts cut out so far. Stay tuned.
