Mrs. Bear and I are spending the weekend out at the Good Guys show with the Beast. If you're in the area, stop on by and say howdy.
Look for one of the pop-up canopys with a Texas flag motif.
Hope you parked in the "Homebuilt Heaven Lot" Bear, looks cool, can't wait o get the Tempest back out and about, figured i would be good mid April up here in the once frozen northland and the weather has played a cruel 75 degree joke on me, ohhh well, least i can get the housework (and car punchlist stuff) done and have more time for cruises in April.....enjoy....:cheers
Yessir, we parked in the Homebuilt Heaven lot. I was proud to be able to put all the marks on the entry from in the "I Did It Myself" column. We didn't win anything, but then I didn't really expect to. There were a gazillion really nice cars out there. We got to drive around the track a few times - not "at speed", just following a lead car - but it was still cool.
The dumps are working again so we had a ball cruising through the place with them open. We sure got lots of looks
wish more shows had a category like that ....can never decide which category i fall into , so usually end up in the "street rod" but most of those are full out resto-mods. Like you said its award enough to have the enthusiast show interest and be able to say "i did that". Hope your taking a lot of pics to share...arty:
Probably the best "reward" I got over the weekend was from all the people, professional paint/body guys included, whose jaws dropped when I told them I did it myself in my garage, and it was my first. That was gratifying.
I'm working on putting together a video that Mrs. Bear shot while we were driving around the track.
:cool Tooooo Coooool!!!....they do that at MIS near the end of the season, I am there this year. Sounds like Mrs. Bear had an exhilarating time.... I bet you were like a proud new Pappa sitting by the Beast...you should be, one hell of a nice job.
Bear- Cool vid. You're goat sounds absolutely wicked-nasty!!!!! I love it. I think it has put me over the edge to get some cutouts.. Looks like a fun time around that Speedway.
Pretty sure it had to be a clone because the real ones had side-oiler 427's, not the mighty SOHC. I think that was the first 427 SOHC I've ever seen live and in person.
Awesome video, looked like you had a great time Bear made me grin ear to ear when you stomped on it, she sounds great! :cheers
