So I got the firewall and dash mocked back up into place to measure
up for the lexan dog house, looks like Eddie (Eureka) from off of the
Classic Funny Car Board is going to knock it out for me this weekend and ship it on monday,
..Ive got Joe Sannutti that will be in the portland area (by coincidense) in a couple weeks from Georgia to pick up a car, and has Volunteered to do all the lettering and air brush work for me at and or about the time after the red is painted on the vega by Kenny at Eagle Street Automotive in Vancover Washington, Joe has just recently just finished repainting the Kemptons Shaker 62 ply Fury from out of California, and hes been slinging the quill since the 70`s and most all been on Racecars, so I have confidence that Joe will do a fabulous job,...
SDo anyways a couple weeks away from making it all be real.
tore the motor down today to have the block and heads o-ringed and also I wanted to inspect the bottom end,..I Just made my final payment on a new set of american 5 spokes,..so I need to buy some new front runners for them, I am payment planning a who;e new 3rd member w/4.10`s in it and so I am going to go with some 33.5` instead of the 34.5 alky tires so new rear tires are on the to get list,..man is this ever going to end,...NOT


Heres pics of the dash and such,.......










Restored and reconditioned the rear 16x13 halibrands,

Before,........the Monster Garage look,..I did like this look




AFTER,....the bling bling of all bling




So I guess its untill next week for the next installment of
"How I missed out on the 2009 racing Season"

It's coming along great Vic. Glad you were able to get some 5 spokes, I really like that look better. Can't wait to see it all done and out there again. Not that racecars are ever done.
