Thanks John, and the same back to you. I've enjoyed looking at every one of your builds, always top-notch stuff. It's fun to have a place to hang out again :)

Fantastic job on this build!!
the Whelen modifieds are very cool looking cars


see a couple of other builds in the background of one of the pics......in particular, the Grant King sprint/supermodified that is started.....will be curious to see which way you go with that one.   :)

Good eye Ed. That was actually how my table looked at the previous home we lived in. We have since moved (5 months ago) and most of my things are still boxed up, awaiting the green light..lol.

I will give you a teaser for the sprinter though, I'm going for a 'what if' build. He started his career on the Firestone drag rubber, evolved with the Outlaws and 410s through the years, and still dabbles from time to time.......I'll give you a hint: I watched him win, to my knowledge, the richest wingless sprint car race on earth.

Jac Haudenschild.....I have an old pic of him, somewhere, looks like he's about 14, sitting on the right rear of, what I believe was a Trostle chassis car, with a Firestone 500 on it. He won the Mopar Million at Eldora, '03,
