    Stuning car but did I read this right.................it's going to be a display/cackle car? What a shame if it's never going to be able to stretch her legs for a full 1320'. kinda like a ******* centerfold with no *****.........nice to look at but what's the point?:(

    I think it would be safe to say it will make a liitle noise at the Ardmore Hot Rod Reunion.

  26. I had a chance to go by Kenneth's shop on Wendsday to have a peek at his Rad Ride. I have seen a number of nostalgia dragsters but never , I say never have I seen one that compares to the live and craftsmanship put into this car. Hope to see him in Temple tx at the nostalgia drags Oct 1. SAys he may pull .
    Great job to all of those rsponsible, you know who you are. Kenneth just turned 60 and what a great wy to start out the best years of your life. I just love the smell of fuel in the morning.
