I did the same but I ran my truck. My favorite was truck pulls.
The best was pulling up to tech with the camper still loaded.....What?

white out by MooringProduct, on Flickr- Nice set up. Inquiring minds want to know your best ET/MPH in the traps. ;)
- I see a crack in the dash. I would get rid of it. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! TOTALLY kidding! I LOVE your set up! It makes me really miss my 77 Ford.... (no need to have a Chevy/Ford war here!!) I just like the old stuff! and I really like the photo of your Nova! What's under the hood other than that massive blower!!?? :)

Only $3 bills for that truck! Great deal! Even with the new motor, new seat, and it looks wonderful now.

Desert- Do you go to Bowling Green at Father's day? I was there for the cacklefest twice, in 2004 and 2006 with my motorhome and my brother's 67 dragster. Not nearly as fast as your car looks! Well I guess the dragster goes faster, but because of the three point roll bar, it actually is less than 40 MPH most of the time. So your car must be much faster.
My brother was on Woodward Ave, Detroit, in a parade, and rapping the engine, same time his foot slipped off the clutch, doing a little burnout, scaring himself and some of the crowd.
Anyway he sold the dragster a couple of years ago, and is busy paying for his sons college.
Fred. - AWESOME CHEVY TWICE!!!

I use to tow with this, but I wanted a truck camper. Didn't want to sell my garage kept Z71 so I built this 83 Silverado. best part is the camper can stay on the truck all summer.
Desert- See next post
