Hey Pat/Franz…  I was hoping to bring my bus down fir a couple of days of loving.  Particularly the roof.  When can I  bring it up?  Would you prefer the roof in bare metal when I come or just bring it as is?  Thanks guys see soon I hope

Bare metal would be cool. Bring it down in a couple weeks.

I installed lifted spindles on sidehill’s car today. Looks good and drives good.

Not for highway use or dot approved ….so ya’ll know!

Yeah, I’d like to run out to the desert with you guys sometime.  I’d also like to hear some recommendations about places to go.

Sorry I missed the barby.

It’s nice to see old pics of cars with the owners from years ago. Very cool.

All kinds of cool things on this oct 1963 type 34 1500-s

Strange rockers and round base heads.

I made a fuel pressure Oriface tube to leak the pressure off of the supply side to the inlet side so that the heat-soak wouldn’t flood the the engine. Been working great.

The car seems to like the IDF 40 carbs better than the 44s. It seems to have more power at  higher RPMs.  It’s also not as loud.

Thanks guys.

We got a pan buggy in for brake job and fuel tank clean.

Wanna place bets on if I can do figure 8’s around the lift posts in the shop? 🙃😉

We decided yesterday that power to length is much more important the power to weight ratio, in relation to wheelies!

We will build it if it comes.
