OK to stop in & say HI !

Kevin,
Just checked out the video…REAL nice and in great shape. A true early gasser, straight axle and and all!! Clean barn finds are rare these days. Good luck with it. Testing any time again soon? I’d like to check it out.

Bob and Bobby.I don’t think Kev’s on this site much,so to answer you both.. Smitty,we’ll be at the Valley this weekend,and don’t know which car we’re bringing yet.We had ours dyno’d today,and it should move along pretty good.We need to get a bigger fuel pump and change the auto shifter,both coming this week.Kevin is also waiting on a fuel pump now because Rudy noticed a little leak on his,so out it goes.You bringing the Chevy up? We have the RV set up directly to the right of the staging lanes,should be easy to spot it with one or the other of the cars there.

I can’t believe the ‘shape’ the Mustang’s in for a ‘barn-find! Hardly any wear or tear! He is one lucky guy with only a ‘few’ minor things to repair,or update. NICE,and good luck!
Maybe I can ask Kevin to get on here and give the story on the car.It seems there’s a lot of guys still around who remember the car and have contacted him.So,he knows some history,maybe not complete,but…..When you think about it,it is pretty darn good that the car is still around,and had obviously not been stripped down or subjected to living a life outside.The barn,judging from the ton of pictures I was sent,was a dry one.

………… ya know “DRAKES” 😀 the “REAL” FORD MAN ❗ from Dover , and for what its worth I am also a REAL FORD ❗ man ,just didnt race at Dover as much as “DRAKE” 😀 did ,and I wish I did ,but “I” actully worked on this car when the “other” owner had it back in the mid 1980s ❗ 😮 and I had told “REVINKEVIN” about it and that I had worked on it , We had taken it to “CONN DRAGWAY” 😮 ❗ . so you know it was a long time ago ❗ i think 1984 maybe ❓ ❓ ❓ … it was painted a little different too …… so I am glad he found it 😀 ❗ …………. becuase I forgot all about it ❗ ……….. I think that “CASEY” would have LOVED the wheelwells 😀 ❗ and said “NOW THATS A GASSER” ❗ …………………………………………..
