Post a want ad here. There might be someone close that has what you need. Welcome to FABO. toolmanmike from Waterloo. Mopars on the Mississippi in Dubuque is a nice show. Mopar MAx at Cedar Falls Raceway is fun too.
 
Does Stuber's still own the Waterloo Salvage yard up there?

Back when I was racing stock cars, Gary ran a. Mopar powered modified. When he got towards the front row, you better watch out!!! He'd lift the left front tire the whole straight away and drive around those hi dollar chevys! One night he showed up at the county fair races with no claim rule and a bunch of big shots from around the state. I noticed that night he had a 340 block and that thing sounded VERY ANGRY! Won his heat race by half a lap, then started mid pack and in a few laps he was gone!!! Not sure where he was having his work done, but his motors were second to none in at a all Chevy track

I have heard that. I don't know who built his engines. You can bet the next time I see him I will ask. LOL

Radar has been keeping himself busy with motorcycle heads and the aluminum work. Woody does the cast work. Pete Williams was there too but retired and moved south. Pete owned a nostalgia top fuel that Radar drove. Radar rebuilt John Force's heads for a while. Blow up on Sunday, Next day air them to Radar to fix and send them back by the next weekend. I can see why he quit that.
 
I've heard the stories about Forces heads.lol I've seen Radar run several times over at Cordova at the World Series. Last time he was running the front engine fuel car
 
Sorry, I mis spoke. Pete Williams was the motor man for Dale Suhr's Orange Crate Nostalgia dragster. Radar drove it.

I'm a hour away but I have never been. You'll have to go and report back with photos. Jet powered General Lee? When will it all end? LOL
 
My brothers been sending me pics. I'm stuck at work welding a broken end loader back together. I posted a couple pics in the General discussion for
 
Des Moines here as well. Hoping to get Mom and Dad's 67 Barracuda on the street after being a project car for way too long
