I had a fuchin great weekend on the 1131 car!!!!! I think I finally have all the carnage from King Of the Hammers about erased!!!! and things have actually started moving in a forward direction!!! Parts are off that need to visit the paint booth… I’m questioning how much paint work and touch up to do on the body now… 8-)???

 

Hot damn! The fit of everything is super impressive considering what this oval has been though. Although not surprising coming from you, JJ.

Got my rear apron finalized yesterday, added a couple mounting points and blasted alll my fenders… gettting there!! One problem at a time!!!!

Crandon!!  Lots of oppurtunity this year at Crandon.. They are making a big ol deal of class 11 racing this year!!  Great purses, and great air time.. were gonna get to rub shoulders and maybe have beers with some of the best off road drivers in the world…. 😎

a pro driver is gonna pilot my car… I can’t wait!!!!  😎  Hope it’s a VW guy… 😎

I am building one of these next. After years of lowered stuff, this looks like fun.

Makes me smile to read that…  😎  It’s a whole different realm of fun compared to the slammed reflector scraping stuff we used to always love… 😎  You can not have as much fun on public roads as you can out in the dirt!!!  😎

Eddie hooked me up and sent me the stuff I needed to get my trans together.  I really want to get my car rolling again and out of the Dirty AGAIN!!   This car has visited the dirty shop tooooo many times!!!  😎 😎 😎   and now it’s sorta in the way for priming parts and dirty shop stuff, so it needs t0 move!!!

This will be my first REAL class 11 trans.. last one was a lottery trans out of Juans 59 ghia…. 😎  and last year I put my sand rail trans in for this race cause I thought I blew the other one… 😎  That trans is where it belongs now, in the sand rail.  and Today I assemble my sweet new setup!  Love putting my shit back together!!!  Getting parts off the floor!!!!   Getting ready for CRANDON!!!  😎
