Just now getting around to uploading some of my pics....

700 rwhp snatched an axle tube right out of the center section. This guy was in a bad way....we helped him load it up, what a bitch that was.



These Dudes had a lot of motor in that old beast Cougar...




Bob Glidden Special



Not too often you see a LWB unibody...and especially one that has been in the 9's




Still for sale....I damned near brought it home with me....

Wow, so many badass cars. Thanks for sharing the pictures.


Btw, how much was the asking price for the Galaxie?

That's always a good event...a lot of variety with a cruise the first day, road racing the second, drag racing the third, and show on the final day.

He had $12.5K on that Galaxie....it's a pretty decent car really. Driver quality paint and the interior is real clean, but it's a little mini-truckish with some velour inserts in the seats. A bit ratty under the hood....has an FE in it (390) with three 2-bbls, converted to a GM alternator (low mount), and also has the good (somewhat pricey) exhaust manifolds on it. Still has drums all around it and some pretty skinny tires too.

If he'd take $11K for it I'd snatch it right up....I might would even go in the $11.2K-ish range for it. Would make a really nice cruiser. Clean up the engine compartment a bit and lose that intake/carb setup...add some AC to it...maybe switch out to some steelies with dog dishes....I think it would be cool, but I like the notch style ones myself...I don't think they are that popular for resale however.

Here's a few more pics...interiors didn't turn out well with the glare....

Every time I see a Super Snake I think how frickin big that supercharger pulley looks. Makes me wonder if they are a pulley swap away from 1000 hp. LOL
