If you want to hike, then I would not worry about the Drags or Bonneville, it would be miserable in that heat. I was in Vegas in July one year,...
My DT won't be in Bonneville and I doubt the Dodge is ready to go by then but I am just 30 miles from Rt66 where it goes through KS, you can stop...
I have a pair of Ford 1 ton dually front hubs and rotors off a newer truck, maybe 90's up? Honestly don't know for sure. I got them at a sale...

I too have a thing for them but now don't have any. I had a 59 4 door chevy wagon that had to go to a new home when I started my business. It...
I for sure had a blast in Tulsa monday, I should have just tagged along the rest of the week because I ended up watching the live feed quite alot...
I got up to the track right as he was making his pass. I think the car looks even better in person. Him and 2 other cars were all were happy with...
If I can swing it, I will come down to watch. I assume that there will be some sort of gate fee to get in?
Concerning innovation being slowed down by big business, sure. I think that there is still going to be innovation and creativity, but maybe not on...
I went over to Joplin on Friday night and only saw 1 coe, it is a 41-46 gmc with a sleeper and ramp bed. Nicely done. Didn't get there before it...
Gonna make a test run down the drags Sat? I was hoping to get mine put together to drive it over, but not sure if it will happen now.
I think that you will have to look at the frame shape and determine if you can pull it off. Usually the frame is pretty straight and flat in...
