    Here's a couple of photos of the work shop. The screamin Eagle Funny car is in the far bay, the ch***is next to the Glory Days dragster is my Big Time Memories 41 Willys, plans are to have her back on track sometime later this year.

    Mike,

    Thanks for the kudos, I had the halibrands on there at first, but liked the look of the ET wheels even better. Great quality and great service.

    Luke,

    Thanks, glad you enjoy the project. As far as what I do for a living, I get that question a lot...g... People have a tendency to think we have a ton of money to throw at these projects, truth is, more than money, I have a great bunch of friends, and a network of people that love these cars and projects as much as I do. I learned to build race cars from my Dad, without him and my friends, my garage is empty.

    Rocky
