    Hey guys-

    No news on the track. Anyone who knows BJ knows that he is a stand up guy and his first goal will be to ensure it goes to someone who will keep it going. Selling a race track would be a large transaction that would take a lot of time. We are full speed ahead in 2018 with two events at Byron!

    That was at our dad's 70th birthday at my sister's house in August 2007. Radirs & pie crusts on the back, Americans on the front & no scoop.
     
  12. This is when it had the 300hp/350 and Powerglide we bought it with.., the Okie Doker might have had a chance back then?

  20. Remember, if it smokes profusely, and has oil running out of the right side exhaust, it's my fault.

    I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. My Mom cooks a mean turkey and I am no stranger to seconds of turkey.

    Speaking of turkey... did you guys here that Scott (you know the guy from Canada who ducks races at the Meltdown) allegedly sold his old cars and is now into racing imports?

    :( I hope that Scott and his dad will still make it to Byron in July, even if only as spectators.
     
  24. Say it aint so ! So wouldn't that put him one step from a dress and high heals?

    I saw a few post Scott made on a couple of the F/X threads looking for info on the Holman Moody torsion bar front end set ups that they used on the F/X Falcons and Mustangs. I know he has/had a 66 fastback tub that he talk about turning into an F/X clone. I miss him on this thread, He had away of getting you GM and Mopar guys panties in a bunch! lol That is what made this thread so much fun! Hope he did not go to the Dark Side! Larry

    Miss him on here too, that's why I tased him a little hoping to get a response.

    Finn we might not recognize him any more, got to look for a guy wearing a leather British cabby hat or Flat hat
    they call it. Kind of like what was used by the Village people in the 70s.:p

    I heard b and c gas were crowded, but good thing Santa came early and looks like I will move up to A gas for next year. Another note , found this 32 Pontiac, would make for one cool full fendered gasser. Maybe another project down the road. Picking up 2 64 Bonnevilles and a 58 Pontiac as well. 4 Dr 64 is rough but maybe will at least get the rear end and 389 out of it. Screenshot_2017-11-12-08-58-51.png
