Hi Guys,

That AA/A reminds me of the Pacer’s Auto and the track looks like NY National?

The rebuilt monza this ’07 season (bobby bounce the old body off the walls at Island 7 times and drove it to the return road, towards the end of the ’06 NETO season) have some GREMLINS in it now with the new WIPPLE supercharger and freshened up “Lil Hemi”. Will see what I can get, maybe Video has some pictures UpStairs of there old cars, remember one being a ’55 chevy with Hemi during the 60’s. CSI Jr. team on the road SIR…. 😆 …

Hey, Drake! Bill told me the other night you guys we in contact, I’m glad to hear it; he always speaks fondly of you. You were sure one of the good guys to us!
Yes, I understand the big Ford valve covers, miss those old things too. We pretty much always got along with the Ford guys, win lose or break it was always a hand shake and we’ll get you next week sort of thing. Not so with other brands the way we saw it. Ed Prout; Ford altered, later junk yard dog pro stocker, Harvey Wilson, Billy Kolb, YOU, some of the best folks ever.
So I’m putting together a ’66 stretched nose Dart, why don’t you put together a stretched nose ’66 ‘Stang and we’ll have at it? Old school, no juice, 500 cubes max, 2600#, 12 inch tires, all else fair game.

[YEAH ! Now were taking ! Drake ? he’s calling you out , edit-dino]
