    Thanks Pinkeynoegg. sorry I missed you at the party.

    Thanks Evel! I actually just haulled ass around the neighborhood about 5 minutes ago. Drove past an elementary school and the teacher started herding the children back inside for safety! haha!

    Thanks cruzr! I love your coupe. I'm going to be working on my roll down rear window in a few days and saw your pictures. Reminded me of that and the 50 other things I need to tweak on this car.

    Been taking a break and working on other cars for a while, but today did some tuning and dialed in some new carbs and took it for a spin. Thought I would share the little video I made.

    Looks good Jason, I am glad the carb works for you.
    Did you see that the choke butterflys closed a few times in the video?
    I never used the choke when I ran the carbs.

    Looks like a Winner

    I did see that when I was driving. It was like staring at a pair of eyes falling asleep!
    When you see them open again in the video, that was me reaching way under the dash to push on the knob I have sticking through the firewall about 2 inches. I need to make that more accessible, or wire them open!

    That thing pulls pretty hard...it pulled me to the edge of my seat and then pulled my eyes buggy.

    Another shot I did this last week. I'm thinking you might get to see a little more of the coupe tonight on Discovery Channel at 10:00 p.m. EST (9:00 Central) on the show, Fast N Loud. I do a little deal on a Model A with the Monkeys.
