Like @Driver50x, I drove stock cars. At I-70 Speedway, number 83.
I don't particularly care for cut down doors, but there are always exceptions...
If you use it, take any chrome off the mating surface and be sure it's flat.
This is the HAMB, after all.
Don't leave cartridges in the mag in that rifle, either. The spring will weaken...
I've had straps (from HF, I believe) that would stretch quite nicely...
#3 looks like a ring groove cleaner. #4 &5 may be valve spring compressors.

I have a buddy who dated "Psycho Sue". Doesn't sound familiar, I hope...

Have you tried bypassing the brake switch with a jumper wire?
I just caught up on the last two pages. Lloyd, I had a thrashed 427 and a freshened 383 sbc sitting when I started on my '39 Chevy. I've always...
It can ring the guts out of anything if you do it right...:D
To paraphrase, "I'd use it ".
^^^^ Now THAT'S funny!
Just the other day I saw an old geezer in the grocery store wearing a HAMB DRAGS 2010 shirt. How do I know he was an old geezer? He looked to be...
I made mine from 3/8" plate.
Slick! Now I have to make one...
And a bigger cam. While you have the manifold off you might as well put a better one on. And the carb. And, and...
