Wow! Explains one reason why the car count at the Autorama was down this year...
Ah, the light is done so I'm moving on. If there ends up being an issue I'll revisit it then. You are so right about the mag - always best to...
Thanks! Hopefully March. Still need to buy the helmet, belts, all the safety stuff that has an expiration. Actually putting a friend with a lot of...
Haha! Thanks Carl! I'm hoping to be at Eagle Field in May!
Thanks! Sounds like you had a ball with your digger!
Thank you sir!
Good luck Harv! I'm just going to use the Flaming River battery remote cutoff switch as an external mag cutoff switch, since I don't have a...
Not a brake light, a safety light so when you are in the shutoff area at night they can see if you are on or off the track before they send the...
Quick update. Made a bracket and wired in the safety light - used a slim LED 3rd brake light so I could tuck it into the tail section, knowing...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Work continues - the big one has been waving the white flag with the throttle linkage. It has been important...
Thanks! I've been following your Model A build for ions -great stuff!
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!
Thanks! I had to pay homage for the inspiration. Not for the same end goal they had, but the approach. To do it just to see what I could see, and...
Thank you sir, that is very kind.
I've just been knocking out a bunch of "one hour" jobs. Set aside Oct. 26th for fire up day so I have a deadline. Got the trans shield on, made...
Hey Joe- I think you meant to post this on a different thread, rather than my dragster thread...
Thanks for being interested!
Thanks! A number of Northern California dragsters had louvers in the early-mid-60s, so it is kind of a tribute to that as well.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm going to great lengths to hide the "modern." It's a vital part of the whole deal. It's really an art project more than a race...
I'm accepting donations! :)
The latest status - just had louvers punched by Matt Seret yesterday so the body is officially done. I'm down to those seemingly endless half-hour...
Thanks! It's actually a brand new old dragster.

Got the louvers punched at Matt's place this morning. Great guy, excellent work.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thanks Brent!
Thanks Craig! Long time no talk! Dean
Hello, I'm in Sacramento and I did a search before this post on anyone in the general Sacramento/San Francisco area that punches louvers. The...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] These are ET wheels I had custom made for my dragster - as Team III is great about doing. They are 10" wide, 15"...
I'm in the same boat, but for my dragster. I love the look of the Champ, and not really into the Sprints - that inner lip on the windows kills it...
Give me an effin' break - are you that wrapped up in yourself that you haven't been paying attention to the challenges Steve has been facing? It...
