All-Ford Drags

Looks like Bremerton National Raceway will be doing an All-Ford Drags July 27.

Didn't get to go last year, but this year I will be racing with several other Ford Diesels. If you don't race, great come watch and check out the new and old Fords.

Its not just a Diesel thing.

I hear ya loud and clear Tom. That sounds good if I can get my new heads on in time I'll be there. There's a pretty good wrecking yard right next door too. Might have to multi task.

It's been almost two years since I lived in Port Orchard, but they scrapped a lot of stuff out of there. Plus, while their selection used to be good, they were a royal pain to deal with. Any question to the counter jockeys was usually answered by "Go out and look".

Yea I know they are kinda jerks out there. I was out there about 3 months ago and actually thney had some stuff I was looking for but the guy at the counter wass too busy looking at the computer and no time for customers so when I went out I filled my pockets with the small stuff. Was not right I know but the guy was a total a$$ to me. Did find a couple 65s there and a old 64 lots of 70s and 80 pickups though. when I was there I was mainly looking for a booster so I didn't really look for other stuff. I'm making a list this time.

That's what I like about those types of wrecking yards. Actually having a chance to go and look.

Yea it's kind of cool in that respect but I don't know how they are on their prices. I found a set of bed caps for a 68 I wanted and got to the counter and they said a guy was going to pick them up in a week or so? ? ? Oh well it worked out for the best cause a friend of mine the next day said he'd make me a set and 1 week later I had a custom set of stainless caps form fitted to my truck and the wrecking yard ones were nasty aluminum and wouldn't have fit as well at all. But yea it's a big muddy mess like your typical older wrecking yard. Just don't follow the googly directions it's easy to find right off hwy 3 just before the airport. By the way if anyone likes Fish & Chips the bremerton airport has world famous fish & chips the best I've ever had. My father in law and I fly over there just to eat, and you leave full.
