Event Coverage Welcome to the 2018 Meltdown Drags

I'm in at #127.




Also, one of these will be delivered in about 2 1/2 weeks.

 

Seeing the mid 60s come alive again is always one of the highlights of the summer. Being able to make a few passes is just icing on the cake. Number 87 this year with the black Vette.

 

The pictures are in order.
The engine was in and had to take it back out because of this.

 

James it looks like you were busy eating pizza instead of putting the oil pump driveshaft in lmao. But seriously that sucks man unfortunately I have had an issue like that before on a customer car that he supplied the parts for lol

Actually that is that short pump rod taking a bite out of my ass.
Some peoples kids.

 

I have a good idea that the person responsible for making this mistake I have made cry before.

 

Remember this one Bob.

 

I tried to run a spool for a few days in my A. Hated it, I guess I shouldn’t have had a limited slip first. Tore it back apart, trying a Eaton true trac. Hopefully it works out ok. Looks like a nifty device.

Is that rated for a blower?

 

Will there be a sighting of this?

 

Jackson don't you go get all comfortable now. I am going to put a new torque converter in my automagic.

 

Well I certainly hope so!

Now to get this pig dialed in before the event.

 

Man I am loving this car

 

Do you have a build thread? A few details please?!

Thanks guys.
I don't have much of a build thread because I was just too busy building it. It was 4 months and 16 days from start to finish.

Here was my half-assed attempt at a thread. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum...d-for-detroit-autorama.1094894/#post-12468824

 

You had better have some paper towels stationed around this car at the Meltdowns because I am sure I won't be the only one drooling over it
