Not much going on. Doing some pretty up work painting the inside, (flat black makes things kind of hard to find quickly) going with a light color, almond I think. Also some body work, fit and finish. Will be heading to the drag strip in a week or two for shake down runs ect. and to the dyno when I can sell back enough deposit cans and bottles. Oh ya, my laptop took a pooo so post pics is down for a bit. :x

Can't make it this Friday. I'm heading out to Wilmington for the July meet and will be leaving Thursday. If it's next Friday, I'll be there.
It's been raining cats and dogs here too (where did that expression come from? LOL!).....Almost 4" since last Saturday and more on the way.
Keep me posted on when y'all go draggin'.

Cleaned the car up and painted the inside to help keep it a little cooler and easier to clean. heading to the drag strip tomorrow afternoon so Amy can get some seat time with the new shifter and engine combo. Gregg, Half the Rampage brothers, is coming down for a visit to witness the fun.

Add a huffer, tip the bottle...... :-D
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

Beer drinkers refer to bottles. Hard core racers tip the can.

Looking good Frank.....I think you guys will be happier with the light interior color.
To bad about the rainout yesterday.....I was REALLY looking forward to the visit.
Let me know when y'all are planning another trip to the dragstrip and I'll come down.

Frank and Amy, great build. Keep plugging away. We need to talk sometime so I can bounce some ideas off of you!
