Nice ride , ApocalypticGoatH

Those old skool customs are way better than new stuff that comes out of a box.

Learned to drive in a '67 Dodge RT 440 Mag. Then I bought a stock '51 Ford Victoria. Went from the '67 RT to a '69 Super Bee SixPack. I think I still hole the speed record on Main St. in Pewaukee, Wisconsin.

Unfortunately I don't any digital pictures of any of them. I did find a picture of a '51 Ford Victoria with the same paint pattern, only mine had two spotlights whcih I had some real fun with. [Linked Image]

Cool , '67 RT and a '69 Bee with a 6 pack.....really nice cars.
laugh

Extra awesome holding a local record of sorts. A friend of mine (now deceased) holds the record for White st here (25mph limit)
Doing 120mph with 2 witnesses (one in car) with a late 60s' T-bird. That record may stand for a long time or forever , White st is now so congested even late at night to make a run like that nearly impossible.

We don’t have any fancy cars but we do have a place for when they aren’t feeling well.

My ride I built up 2 years ago. Bought on line from Connecticut. 1979 Chevy Caprice Aero Coupe.
Stock it was a 305 V8, 3 speed automatic w/2.76 gears (a dog).

Then I proceeded to build it. Replaced the rearend with an 8.5 posi. w/3.73 gears. All new hub to hub.

Replaced the engine w/headers and dual exhaust. It was a 350 stroked to 383 w/aluminum Corvette heads.

Purchase a 700R4 transmission and installed a special crossmember. New HD driveshaft.

It still needs work (as usual). But as always a project in the works.

This is a friends v drive drag boat that is a 1974 hull he restored and I want to do one similar myself. Amazing adrenaline rush sitting next to that big block when it launches.

1989 F150 4x4 with a 3.9 Cummins 4 cylinder diesel. Slow and sounds like a tractor but I average 26 mpg, been on a couple road trips to New England and back, never a hiccup. I rolled and tipped Kirby marine paint on her three years ago, due for a fresh coat.
