    well i got the car back to my shop. Gary (hotrod69) did a jam up job on paint/body and assembly, Now i got to put the wires and pluming in and get it tuned in. Dont have time or money right now for the Hilborn so i cleaned up some newer carbs for the crossram. Hamb Drags are getting close.........:eek:

    thanks all for the pics . those r great.

    "so what did it run" well............ we are have carb problems. the car drive wonderful. straight and smooth. i got a mid 12 out of it but more 13s. the carbs arent working right . we got 11.80s last year with the green car. might try and get that hilborn overhauled sooner then later.
