I thought you had a big pic of your car on here but I don't see it---anyway for the rest of you, a picture does his car no justice. That thing is an extremely well built piece you need to see to believe. NICE

Hey Fern, I put a pic on here a few weeks ago, but it's disappeared. Damifino what happened. Got a pretty good pic of yours and mine from Saturday. I'll see if it will post. Thanks for the kind words about the ole hotrod. As I recall from speaking with Jimmy Bridges a few years ago, He had Gary Jennings do the cage/chassis work around 1993/94 time frame. Also, the paint is roughly 35 years old. It's held up pretty darn well.

Well racing don't look good around here this week end. Rain and 100 degree temps forecast as of today. we will see

Average gas in my 'hood $3.09 but diesel is $5.79

Our Governor suspended the State sales and fuel taxes, that's somewhere around $.40 - .50 iirc.

110 race has $14.00, reg gas $3.39 Premium for my Mercedes $4.89. I like that idea of suspending the state sales tax but that will not happen here as they are raising every tax they can to support our so called "economic development".

Hodwy y'll
Been out of the loop for a few day. Got stuck in the hospital for a virile infection. I'm home now and recuperating well.

Welcome back Floyd. Glad things are getting better for ya.

Not much happening on the car right now. Since getting back from the Farmington race, I've been wide a$$ open with work and home stuff. Did manage to drop tranny Saturday. Nothing broken, just need to get to clutch for some preventive maint. Should finish up my work week tomorrow evening, and hopefully be able to make time for car/clutch/tranny stuff Friday and Saturday.

Wifes B-day was yesterday, and had great timing for it. Jelly Roll had a concert downtown Monday, so we went. Very entertaining to say the least. He put on a great show, as well as the opening acts.

Y'all have a great week.

Floyd you and I have been on here a long,long time. You hang in there.
