  6. Looking good man, I Like the buick drums and backing plates
     
  7. Wow, don't know how I missed that! I was there in the blown 392 T Bucket. Sat. I was parked out in the back right next to the swap meet, and Sun. I was the second car in on the main drag right next to O'Brien Hall and the main entrance. I did have the top on it this year. I'll have to pay more attention this year if you go.

    I was parked just behind the '32's section. I did cruise the main road a few times.

    I have a complete NOS Hilborn unit from the 60s. Never been on a motor. It is the angled one they don't make today. Had it on E-vil bay 6 months ago, didn't meet my reserve.

    Flows nicely with the rest of the car now... If a hood would fit, well then a hood would fit... Know what I mean?

    Been able to work on the coupe a little bit lately, I got myself all kinds of steering problems with the wilson backing plates. Decided to work in another area for a while...

    I like my little water inlets, wish I had them in the heads and could use an OG cross over, but these turned out nice. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1416702881.188710.jpg
    Still have a lot to do...
