It's got a Magnacharger in it. I finally got some paint on the burb and picked up a new steering wheel for the 68. Here's some pics

Re: 68 S/C update.....

I left PA for the south, there seems to be room for us car nut Yankees down here. Then you won't have to worry (well maybe once before you die) about 5" of snow.

Re: 68 S/C update.....

I will more than likely move south once the kids are out of the house (14 years from now!) That will more than likely be my time to retire as well...

OK, here's the burn out video. It's my first video so it's kinda weak....it's with my my slicks and probably should have waited until I put the PHATTY's back on....I still need to do some more motor tuning and then I'll do another one, but for now this will have to do .
