"The KING is dead....."

Offenhouser.....

Basically the same as used in this car.....



I haven't given up on you yet.....or at least not the car

Cheers,

Drewfus

 

Great lookin' car, can't wait for a full race report with photos

 

Hows that fit a flatty???

I'm hoping the inlaw decides against using his on his car and I can put it aside for later...
You see he has two motors and will only need one so the bits neede are close, a resto is on the cards just no racing as the car will never meet the safety inspection requirements. I'm hoping to do a demo pass though one day.... But life gives you other priorities and some things can wait. I have it and its safely stored, thats all that matters.

 

Drewfus, I am damn excited for you!! The crooked 6 jr is freakin' awesome!!!

 

WOW

nicely done my man, looks like one of the sweeter rides

how did "tech" pan out? you a "GO" for this weekend?

 

The Aussies set one hellofa high standard.

 

ALL systems go, paperwork being stamped, money payed (to ANDRA) and tech plate soon to be fitted...Note: in the photo's I didn't have a batterybox, but it will by the time it hits the track....YEE HAA...whatch out Haddy....

Cheers,

Drewfus

 

AWESOME news my friend, give em hell

 

mate you made it, geez. its been a long time coming, too many times as brides maid.
I wish you well and hope you give it to em all.

now on with the pick em up!

 

Well.....the day has been and gone....and the result...



rain.

Yep, we got the car to the track, went through the paperwork kaos, waited in lines, got things in order awaiting out turn......and then rain.

Dissapointed not to have got the chance to really test the car, but I am STOKED that the car is all there ready and waiting, that it actually drives and sounds great, and can now be removed from my list of things to finish....

Now onto my rpu....blown flatty....mmmmm....

Cheers, and thanks for all the support, I really appreciate the people who both encouraged me, helped me with parts, and kept me in line & kicked my butt when fighting through the dissapointments.

In particular, QQmoon, Nick, Jim, and Mrs Drewfus who have all been there and supported my endevours at all cost.

Cheers,

Drewfus
