    Tested the 64 tonight. Ran good made 3 passes and drove it onto the trailer. Gonna have to change the 5.13 gear, dad was up against the rev-limiter before the 1000 foot mark shifting the Jerico at 7500. Gonna steal the 3rd. member out of the 66, it is a all pro 4.56. She is a screamer ran a 11.60 killing the tires and running out of gear WAY EARLY. I think it may be good for 10 teens when we get it lined out.

    I was talking about Jeff and Paul,but it sure would be cool to line up with that Deuce of yours,Jim....although I would surely be bringin' a knife to a gunfight unless I caught you taking one heck of a nap at the tree....lol

    Looking forward to checking out that Suburban of yours a little closer this year,too....That is one slick ride.:)

    There is a whole story in gettin this far but it sounds much better after some beer.
    These dumpsters parts can be a test to assemble.

    What's the policy on portable fire pits. For instance the bottom half of a 55 gallon barrel for some evening atmosphere....? asking for a friend.
