Some pics and video from the drags. I brought my "desert rescue" 73 charger. Had a tuff time getting it to launch. Did the Ford have no top end, or did he lift?

In front of me is an AMC running mid 11's. I was next him on one pass. Felt like I was in reverse....

He was a real nice guy. He was saying he bought that car as a rolling shell. Paint scheme already done. And he did not do an LS engine which was nice.

We talked with the "Little Red Fire Truck" guy about coming to the HEMI Show in Phoenix on March 7th to display his vehicles. He also bought the rights to "Hemi Under Glass", as well as the original "Little Red Wagon".

Yes I did. It was a great time. And the car survived. Now to switch out that carb for fuel injection.

I pulled the 750 off yesterday and installed an older Eddy E Street system I picked up from a friend. Starting it up today on the E Street.

The 400 is long gone. It has a basic 1968 383 in it now.
