Those tires look familiar Sam! Establishing a new level in Day-2. Can't wait to see it. Will be one of the stars of the show.

Wow...I'll get to see a car that resides just a few miles away from me for the first time....2000 miles away from me (kinda like the Edel Deuce...which resides about 2 miles from work)

Very nice car. I would LOVE to have one of those sitting next to my GSS Demon. I wish my dad had bought one of those rather than the dark green 350 Nova he had.

<span style="font-size: 14pt"><span style="color: #3333FF">MCACN II has come and gone and what a HOOT! Big thanks to Eddie M. for all of his help, technical guidance, and detailing secrets in prepping the Deuce for the show (he had two Camaros of his own to get ready!). I thot I started converting it early enough back to the way the Roofs Day-Two'd, but boy did I under estimate. You'd think it wouldn't take long to bolt on a bunch of speed parts - suffice it to say I couldn't have done it by myself. Eddie's wonderful wife, Kimberly, is glad to have Eddie back home rather than him spending countless hours at my shop prepping the Deuce!

<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-weight: bold">Thanks Eddie!</span> </span> </span>

Here's a few underhood/underside shots of the post-<span style="font-style: italic">YENKO</span> &quot;converted&quot; Roof Deuce. I was able to salvage Earl &amp; Linda's Cyclone headers, Cherry Bomb mufflers, and the exhaust tips (not shown below) from their original exhaust system...
