12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build

Participated in the Cruisin da Lake fundraiser this past weekend. We drove 152 miles around Lake Ponchartrain in New Olreans. There were 8 checkpoints around the lake and at the end you can place your stamped card in a box for a drawing for $100. Car ran great and averaged 13.8mpg. I'm definetly not concerned with fuel efficiency, but that's certainly a bonus.

Missing from the picture below is a 65 mustang that also convoyed with us. Guy with the corvette has 2 hotrods, but one has a torn up engine and the transimssion in the other one quit shifting into 3&4th so he took ole' reliable. I've heard there were around 500 cars that participated in the event.

Best use of the car, IMO. Put some miles on it and enjoy your efforts.

Best looking car in the bunch, but I admit I am biased. :D
