This build makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
Even when I see a Prius.

Yes, I'm a CarJunkie... How many times would YOU rebuild the same engine before getting a crate motor?

What a GREAT weekend, although not finished My son Lee and I had a BLAST with my new toy at the Eagle Field HOT ROD Gathering. Much left to do, (including a search for 400 Sm Blocks and parts), before the Twin is called finished and can "Murder the Tires" at will. I want to thank everyone for their support and look forward to making runs again in May! Rocky

From the stands, 2nd gear
Roll Bar Mount, 2nd gear, yep the stock 307 and 350 are a little tired and oil drain back lines from the lower heads to the pans need to be made.Comment

Honestly Rocky, it was a priviledge to see it get done. Far out. I'm kind of at a loss for words... (rare)Flying south, with a flock of bird dogs.Comment

Well since all the fun in October I've made some progress. Finally got 4 Vette V/Covers and some Offy breathers together for the engines. Then I fitted an Aluminum body to have some protection until the "T" goes on, that will be a while as more power is the order of the day. The body needs some fit and finish but the hurry was to shoot a video to enter the "Always A Champion" Sweepstakes and could use your help. Voting starts on Jan 2, 2012 but I'd like to get bumped up ladder and that's done by views of my video.
Check it out here -----> http://contest.alwaysachampion.com/c...wentry/1007448
And thanks everyone for your support! Rocky
