Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
Pic 1 and 2. This car belongs to Eric Wise. I've seen this car on other LS sites.
So we talked and he is also on the 71-72 site as ls1nova71. He came down from Kansas City to run in the autocross. He won the event with a 33 second pass in the 48 and older group. He and I were in the same class with a total of 7 rides, I can in next to last. Eric's car runs an LS engine, MII front end, Ford 9" rear, may not look it but is a nice ride.
Pic 3 This is my autocross sticker, had to run the course a few times before you got a sticker

Pic 3 is the post 49 winner. A 69 Camaro purpose build autocross, was a super nice car, and the sound of this engine and exhaust was great.
After getting home I saw I had rolled over to 24,000 miles

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
I'm trying to get more on the autocross event. Jimbo took video and sent me an E mail, I download it, but it would not load up. Will work on that tomorrow.
