That is good news Mark! Hope you have it running this year.

Just as a little bit of motivation. Ryan and I just dropped off his motor at the machine shop. It will be getting a little bit of this, a little bit more of that, and hopefully he can make a run at your A gas record. :lol: I know that will make Seymour happy.

It is always good to have some friendly competition!

Rick

Great.

I am rebuilding some of my car now also.

But You have a much larger project there than i did..

Also Bondo adds weight. Be sure to sand as much away as possible.

:D
