Well, updating my 63 from last raced in 1993. A lot to do seeing as a ton of rule changes. Hope it's ready next year. Freshened the motor, transmission and converter update, front & rear discs, and caltracs to name some things. Now the interior and paint. I must be crazy!

not crazy what class are you going to run in
 
we are all crazy when it comes to our cars,hope you get it done for next year. Put up some pics when you get it finished please.
 
Very nice.You are sooo right. Running in a NHRA stock class is ruff and costs plenty jing-a-ling.
NSS/A would be nice. I can't afford to run NHRA Stock or Super Stock class any more and keep up with the rules.
Now I'm looking at the Southeast Gassers Assoc. Sure looks like fun and affordable.Too bad for me it's on the other side of the country.

There is nothing at your local track to look good in?
 
Vegas used to be fun,management changes over the years kinda dulled it some. PSCA/SCSN comes to town.I just don't have anything to compete. I have been looking into nostalgia racing out west.We'll see.
Not taking away anything ,Just saying that to be competitive in NHRA cost is out of my ball park.
Maybe the local bracket racing.Been awhile since I did that.I'm getting really nostalgic lately and miss the mom&pop tracks of my younger days back east. Oh the glory days.

I second the good old days. I did freshen the motor but kept the same Lunati cam, better head gaskets, etc. Not trying to keep up with the unlimited budget guys. It has and will go under the index, just not the fastest heads up car. It's a fun ride. There is the Midwest Class racers here, so some of that. Maybe a nostalgic race or two. NHRA has priced me out of the points meets. Just want it to be NHRA legal for whatever reason. So I can run the Midwest Class Racer meets around here.
