Thanks Mark, I've watched your build on the H.A.M.B., love your Pontiac! Here's the maiden yoyage at Gateway...
This was supposed to be an easy shake down pass, left easy, shifted quick and just cruised on down. The car was set up to run 1/8 mile so I just eased on down (a 1/4 mi. can seem like a mile!), about 300 ft. or so from the stripe I let out to take the 'rescue' opening. As soon as I lifted, the driveshaft said 'adios' and headed south! Broke the trans, ripped and beat the floor and didn't do the rear yoke any favors! It scuffed the left slick just enough to tell it touched it (hand of God right there). It still ran a 12.43, ought to be plenty quick when I get it ironed out. (pretty cool to out run a real Yenko deuce, too!)
That last pic is the day I got the car...my Dad decides to, for whatever reason, give me the thing! I'm not worthy and he's too cool. It got it's name and it's lettered as a tribute to him and his old Falcon....first version...
second version of same car...
Wow, this is long winded! Single leafs/ long ladders, Speedway front. I don't really know much about the motor, 12.5-13 to 1, 700+ lift roller, World heads(iron).
