Projects 1946 GMC Bonneville build

On our way to Loring, I drove it onto the scales.

 

Beautiful !!

Great looking truck! Here’s to a successful weekend with it.

 

We start racing on Monday. I'll post timing slips, good or bad.

 

Thanks!

 

Wow, surprisingly it's a few pounds (230) lighter than my street driven 46 GMC (weighed full of fuel).

 

Looking forward to results. Good luck and be safe!

For those about to rock, we salute you.

 

Our first pass at Loring, taking it easy. I wanted to see if it drove okay, shifted okay . I set 3 new records.
The second pass, I went for it. I had 3 perfect shifts and then the tac started going the wrong way. We lost a lot of oil and we're done for this event.
We'll see what happened when we get home.

 

Hate it when the Tach does that. Sounds like things went OK before that. Hope you get it sorted before Bonneville.

 

We'll bring it back here in July.

 

Congratulations/ condolences.
Sure is a nice looking little pickup.

 

Thanks!
