Looks GREAT!!----------FEDER

 

Feder, you bet I was happy to see you. Looking at the primmer/sealer today, I can really see the purple pearl on the high spots. Looks wild, kind of a flat Detroit Diesel green with purple highlites. Hopefully the maiden voyage tonight.

 

see you guys around 4:30 or 5
she will fire tonight!!!!

 

Git 'em!

 

Damn! In these pics it looks like the same color as your truck, Keith. Get a pic of your truck behind it, pusher style for that SoCal salt flat racer/push truck team colors look! Hahaa, now what to call the team...hmmmm

 

Tim Conder, How the Hell you doin? Don't be a stranger! We miss you..OLDBEET

 

not a runner yet but mabey tonight just picked up the exhaust parts
on the way back up to scarrysville jeffrey

 

Careful there. If you get too close to Detroit Diesel green, you will create oil leaks galore.
