Draggin's

So what did you guys think of the Draggin's 47th Annual car show? We really need more Ford trucks and I saw too many bowtie engines in Fords for my liking. I watched the engine competition and bought a green 1951 Ford F-1 model. So what did you guys do? I ran into Glen at the door but my friend wasn't keen on waiting around so we went in. I figured we would meet up later but I never saw anyone for the 2 1/2 hrs I was there.

They put a chevy 350 back together with just a rachet and a speed wrench. The best time I saw was 8 min. The engine just has to run unassisted for 5 seconds.

Robert owns both, the GT and the Boss 9.
He a fleet of many other neat Fords including a 39 Ford convertible with the 428 that was orginally in my model T and 2 Couger Eliminaters. Most are stock except for the 39.

It would be nice if Robert joined but I don`t think he has time, too many toys.
He also has PSD and other Ford trucks in his survey company.
