Nice truck !! … like the shamrock gasoline logo… rave on !! … gonna’ keep the “patina” ???? ..

Patina is the plan. LS7, trans., top shelf interior, and wheels, all for the time being. 😮
They’re sandblasting it today to see if there’s any hidden problems.

Too darn quiet!!! Any new news from the club members, like burning the candles in your garages updating your hot-rods, what have you? Or Just Christmas shopping,and decorating your homes,perhaps??? Too early for ‘cabin-fever I think? 🙄 😀 Pete.

Cakes I’m busy spending all the money I have before the new tax plan goes into effect. New roof on house, new septic system, new boiler, new hot water heater. And for myself a lot of new tools, my engine for the 57 is at Jack Merkel’s, positraction unit being rebuilt and rear assembled by Jr. I’ve been busier than a fly at a horse barn.

WOW PAT!!! That surely thinned out your wallet ($$$$$$) !!! I hope you have a few shackles left for skiing and have the ski’s waxed up, ready to go! I know you love it almost,as much as drag racing ‘Baby Torque’! I missed seeing Junior and Patti,at this years ‘Dover’ Drags,and hope both are doing well ! No doubt, moss hasn’t grown under your feet, since the races at the ‘Valley’! GOOD to hear from ya!!! 🙂 Pete.

Pat, That’s Dick Doyle, one of the “Drag on Run” car club boys from the Bristol, CT.
area. He had the Blown Hearse earlier. He was very active running the tracks on
the east coast. I remember seeing a lot of wheelies from that car. 😮 I relieve that
Willys has attended our Dover Drags at the Valley as a Drag Alley participant. The
car now owned by George Lourie and painted orange.

Frank… 😎

I remember a few years back, at the Nostalgia Drags at the ‘Valley’, George was turning in the 9’s with the Willys! The Valley officials told George, no more running the full quarter, ‘ only’ the 1/8th! Reason was, George’s Willys still had the 3 point roll bar from the 60’s, instead of an updated (legal) roll cage, as the N.H,R.A rules require,at that speed he was running! Also I believe George is quite involved with his son, running an ‘alki’ funny car (?). His Willys, a “CLASSIC” survivor from the ‘Gasser Wars’ left original, from the mid 60’s manner!!! 😉 🙂 Pete.
