Cool, cool. There is a guy locally that has a Sprint he says but says he is going to stop by...I'm still waiting lol.
i have been sick since sat night so no progress other than holding the couch down. I'm about to go stir crazy. On a positive note I found more functionality of the Holley efi that I did not know.
The system is much better than I even could have thought.

I have to be honest. If the sucker hooked ,that ol' 351 runs darn good for an iron headed turd.
Can't wait for 396" and this set of trick flow heads on my shelf...

I'll look in my old box of crap, I think I have some from back in the day.

IF they haven't faded. All the old polaroid's seem to be going bye bye as the years plug on and on.

You are really getting old ya know.

I still have three of them. A 61 Ranchero, 63 4 door with 28 K on it and a 64 2 door. To many cars, not enough time!
