Thanks gang. Suzanne and I have been very busy working on our house. We haven't really had any free time for car stuff. My car basically sits now due to gas prices and really haven't had much interest in fooling around w/ it. I think I'm a lil burned out on it. I've been riding my bike a lot and really enjoying it!!!

Here's Suzanne's bike

We've been trying to get as much riding time in together as we can.

As far as the car goes, I haven't really done anything more to it since early in the year and that was adding a tube front end to it. So here is my long list of mods, the only thing I really have planned as money allows is going from 3.73's to 4.10's by the fall to get some cool weather racing in before the tracks close.

Thats a cool Picture history, how long did that take you to put together, I really like that shot of you rear wheel burning out, thats cool. I love to see what a car first started as and then how it grew to what it is today, Nice Job Bernie, on the History and the car.
:Cool:

So do you think you can beat me now

I bought the car in 94 w/32K on it. It remained in stock form as you see it in the first pic until around 03. That's when I got the bug:twisted:

Ed, those burn out pics were taken at the NVMC track day in April. I have the pics in succession.
