    Own and drive my '32. Went Christmas shopping in it today. I've driven it from Florida to the LA Roadster show twice and to New England three times. I drag the Mullins on long trips.

    <------- I recognize the car, but who's the old fat guy standing next to it? Time sure does fly by! I've owned the car for 30+ years through several incarnations...some better than others. But...what I want to know is, why it IT look BETTER after all these years while I look WORSE? Attached is a photo the day we dragged it home. They all have to start somewhere! Here's a "before" and "after".

    Although the car is not HAMB compliant as it is a 1967, I built it completely, including chassis fabrication and paint in my 2 car garage, drive it on the street, and run 10.70's at the track with it

    Owned mine since 1991, its not currently on the road. The engine (429 bb ford) needs a rebuild, and I have more body mods that I want too carry out.
    I have driven it for several years as a dailly though, and what a blast it is too.

    I earned the badge. U.S. Taxpayers owned the planes. Thanks for letting me fly the C-130 Herculees & C-5 Galaxies for 10,000 + flying hours!

    Yup, own her and drive her.

    For the LIFE of me, I can't say that I do!
     
  30. Pretty much every chance I get in the summertime. Hopefully it won't be off the road too long this summer coming up when I swap in the 5 speed. It's the only runner I have in a 1300 sq. foot garage full of man sized Lego kits:(
