Ditto on that!

And when you put the car, the family and the story together it is likely bare none one of the neatest stories and cars I have seen in 20 years!!!! Awesome!

Merry Christmas Everyone. After more than a year absent from posting on this this wonderful website, I am going to try to recuscitate this threat. Unknowingly after I orginized my pics on photobucket I realized many of my previous pic were deleted. Thats a bummer! Anyhow..2011 has been a busy year for me. Due to now spending more time working in London than the US, our EL HEMI did not get to stretch his legs as often as he needed. I did get to put back some DAY TWO goodies (Rat Roaster, Mallory coil, Mallory distributor) it had back in the day. Enjoy. Here One I made it look RETRO!

Juan - those shots are just GREAT! Very nice period look to them. If you hadn't told me, I would have guessed they were vintage photos. thanks and Merry Christmas to you!
