Default Intro

I'm 52 yrs on the outside, and 25 on the inside, and have been a car freak since my 1st slot car set at age 8. Anyway, i came of age in the mid-60's and just dig that era Drag Race influenced cars (Gassers, A/FX etc). I've had somewhere north of 60 old Vettes, but always wanted to build the car I day dreamt about as a kid. So i did! A Blue fastback, with blue windows, and the nose kicked up a little. Whenever pops was bitching, or i was bored in class, or a rockin song came on the radio, my mind went straight to this car. It's got a 5.7 rod (Scat crank/rods), 406, w/Brodix heads, big solid stick, and of course a four speed
