John stopped by our barn where we have a few cars stored when he was on the look for a drag car. There's a '66 there he was checking out. He made the right decision....bought one that needed a ton less work and is friggin cool.

I'll probably run into you at Bandimere at some point eventually.

I like the blue ones, but I'm a little biased!  ;D

Welcome to the board little brother.  Hang out here often and the fellas here will have you taking the 385 out and putting in a FE.  ;)

What no love with a pic of the long roof?
