First run of the season, wifey chased me into the station(expired tags). Tanked her up , & just could not resist a couple gears @ 6000! If I were deaf, I knew she was runnin , cause she let a pretty good cloud of smoke out the tail pipes in 1st gear......Im not deaf tho, so I could hear the 3310 singin on top, & the Richmond screamin below. You can take the OL'boy out of hotroddin......but you cant take the hotroddin out of the OL' boy! crazyL, crank em up

Sounds good. I can hear it now....

I put the new tags on the '67 white truck today and put the battery back in. Can't wait to get her out. I also tinkered with the '69 and got the shift linkage working right. (didn't want to go into park)

They way winters are in this area, mine never goes down for the season. Just takes a week or 2 off here and there. When I finally get some good doors and seals on it, I hope the heat stays in it a little longer.

I drove mine today as well. my favorite part is leaving a stop light and smackin' it to 1/2 throttle. let the BFG's light up 'til the speed matches the tires. funny how people get out of my way at times. I cant wait until I get the 700R4 built and installed.
