excuse me while i kiss the sky(front wheels off the ground)HaHa

 

35 years! Your car was only 3 years old then! What is the story behind this?

 

cant wait to see it! if u can, make a video if the fire-up!!!!

 

the car was only run for 3 years then retired to my buddys aunts garage until i inherited it in 1999 then i put it back in storage until this spring.it only ever drag raced those three years some times he took it on the street but not very often i just took off the plates that were on it from 1974.

and yes david that is the plan to make a start up video

 

I'd be working on it tonight!!

 

good luck!! hope every thing goes well with the install.

 

well dave it pouring down rain outside and i have to do it in my driveway as my garage is full of parts(motor,trans and cherry picker.besides my harley) so i will have to wait till morning the weather is suppose to clear off over night.

 

Can hardly wait to see this, good luck and hope all goes well. Us purple Mavericks and Comets need to stick together.

 

Hope all goes John.

 

Exciting. Good luck.bananamanbananamanbananamanbananamanbananamanbananaman:bananaman
