 Check out the Videos/Links page (above) for video of us helping get a car back on the road. This picture is from a story on the Hot Rod website... Mary's famous, too!

Done on Time!


Looks like I made it... barley! Going cruising on Saturday - praying that nothing else brakes! Lots of fun to drive. AC is really cold! Opec loves that I could not get 4:10 gear changed for this trip (lots of extra fuel). I’m broke and tired, but you have the slap the smile off my face when I drive it!

T-Minus 12 Days!!!

Only 12 more days until the Power Tour! Was able to drive it around on Saturday, then spent Sunday fixing the brakes. This week the paint will be buffed and trim will be placed. Car looks and sounds awesome - can't wait to put the final touches on!

Road Test!!!

Got the hood on and put the front and back glass in last night.... and took it for a ride! I think it was fast enough! Doesn't stop too well, though - not enough vacuum because cam has too much overlap. Going to have to use a vacuum pump. Next is putting the trim on and finishing the A/C system.
