Awesome, I remember how much you liked that car too, bet you are pretty happy right now :cheers:
 
I remember this like it was yesterday :cheers:
Happy as heck to see it got fixed and looking strong again.
I bet it spent some time on a frame/Pull machine looks great.

Congratulations
 
wow! 2 years? Seems like yesterday, but glad after all you've been through she's back on the road.

Grant
 
frame was saved by the sub frame connectors .

yea i thought about scrapping it a time or two but i would pick my self back up.

im really happy shes running a lil rough but running the carb is a lil funky might have to switch it out for my dad rebuilt 600eddie
but i think some of it is old gas
 
Wow, i remember your thread about the wreck. That was when i wasn't even a member, just lurking. Happened around that curve near a gate, iirc. Glad your back in business and good luck gettin' her finished.
 
Good stuff!! Isnt it when you were going round a corner and the oncoming car smoked you?? Glad ya decided to keep it!
 
yes it was a blind corner going into the drag strip entrance and a guy leaving did a burnout and cam rippin out at the same time i was creeping in slowly.

my seats back in i have a issue with lights now my whole blinker system aint working.

thanks all for ur kind words i didnt know this many ppl would remember
