I spoke to Kenny Ford yesterday at PTC Transmissions.
He has Dale's old Arrow.
He let a guy "Borrow" it to put an Iron Duke Engine in it.
Dude died and Kenny got it back.

I thought Mark/Wes/Brent got it.
I think it's in the Green Valiant.

Yes they did.

Glad to see the Arrow still around. Last I had heard it had a 340 in it.

An Iron Duke pathetic-excuse-for-an-engine. In a race car.

I'll file that with all the other crap in this crummy timeline we're living in. :roll:

Wow, blast from the past. Thanks for posting that, Stan. Pretty badass car back in the day. Dale was a real (fun) talker too, and could cut some lights... Been gone a long time now.

Slant on,
Lou

Hmm, that is interesting. I suppose we are not the only folks who push an engine platform that was never intended for performance use.

I wonder if it is any more difficult to find or buy performance parts for the ID Engine than it is for us?

Hopefully, it will get some use with whatever engine platform is installed in it.
