Andrew, I'm still gathering parts for the next one. I won't tear it down until I have everything I need, since it is still drivable/enjoyable as-is.

Jake, you are probably seeing the Cal-Trac bar or the backside of a muffler.

Awesome, Tony! The car definitely deserves the ink. 10 sec PT. Doesn't get better than that.

That's wierd. The photos look way better here than they did in print. The copy I bought was very dark.

Looks like someone finally lowered it, ;) .

umm, the car was never lowered after I completed building it. You are probably mistaking it when it was 100% stock and just had the wheels bolted onto it when I got them.

For some reason, I thought it sat a little higher in the front.

Car looks good!

Maybe you're thinking of the photo where he was pulling the front wheels at the drag strip? :naughty:

Jake, that is a muffler under the car not a football.

Looks nice Tony! The Impala on the cover, contents page and pages 58-61 is one of my cars. Not bad, two of us from here in the same mag.

Both sweet rides, the new Camaro Owner must be loving that car. And that Impala 409 is rare and tastefully done.

TwinSting, that Impala is sweet! Glad to hear you are a member here too.

Haha, yeah I'd say the front end sat up a lot higher sometimes:

Tony I would have tears in my eyes if I was you..
I bet when you were a kid you traded in your new puppy every couple of months for something different..
Actually I understand that you love the challenge of taking a vision and bringing it to fruition..Pretty cool..
You should be proud that was a special car.

Yeah Steve, I got the nice prints. Thanks! Reminds me, I need to get them framed.

Scott, I only traded BMX bikes and skateboards :)

I finally took a few minutes and checked out the article. Nice write up on a beautiful car. I'm still amazed that car did 10s. I guess that means the next one needs to do 9s, right?

nah, the next one is a land barge convertible. I'm building a nice high-hp cruiser to take on Power Tour and such. This one will have A/C and be more comfortable :)

You must be getting older.. lol

My '68 will have even less cushy stuff than my '69..

Nope, its because I'm building an 8-second drag car and only need one :)
