Thanks man. I am hoping to go as long as we can find a babysitter. I don't think the kids would make it for the whole day.

I had some issues with the engine I bought as discussed in a different thread. So, I got a new block and head and it's finally running good. Big thanks to Julian for coming out with a good block and working with me until 2:30 in the morning.

The driver's axel is clicking like crazy and the isc isn't regulating, but once I get those I should be on the road. Hopefully, we'll be at the cookout next year!

Well the car is finally back on the road. I sure do like driving it everyday over my truck. The paint still needs some touch up and I'd like to tint the windows a little. Otherwise, I'm loving the car. It's a blast to drive, but still comfortable to ride in. Wright county cops don't give me a 2nd look either, which is nice.

I'm on the fence about dynoing it yet since it's taken so long to get it going again. Maybe later this fall I'll let Shane have at it.
