Ditto! I envy anyone who fell in love with a 427 Cobra, even if you were only 9 or 10!! (I would have been about 17 or 18 at the time.....)

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes, the dragster is mine. We did a checkout pass with the car at the Sturgis track on Sunday when nobody else was around. We've been building this for a while. The chassis cert runs out in early 2010 so I need to get it reinspected before pulling the trigger in anger. The plan is to run with the midwest wild bunch just to learn the car next summer. Should be in Pierre a couple of times with it or my ADRL promod motorcycle. Somebody must have taken pictures yesterday, I was a bit preoccupied. I haven't had grasshopper leg in years, but that first fire up did the trick!
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
