Since your fleet keeps changing! LOL! Which is a good thing. Which one are you bringing to Carlisle now? I would like to see the burgundy Imp.
I don't have anything that's ready for Carlisle. I like to look at cars way more than I care to show mine off anyway.
I may end up going to Good Guys in Columbus this year cuz it's the same weekend & it's a lot easier for my buddies with whom I've made the Carlisle plans. They're all stormers too.

That yellow car truly is something special & so is Glenn, for whom I have tremendous respect.
With the burnished red car, I can use the original interior since it's showroom perfect & all I really need to do is paint it. It can always be returned to the original color after I'm dead & my kids sell it. ;)
Gave her a tune up today & boy she runs good now. Carb isn't great though. What's that Edelbrock carb that some of you guys are running?
You need an Eddie 1411 carb. 750 cfm with an electric choke.

Yes it will. Let me know if you guys are going with this and I'll let you know the accessories that you will need. Factory or Eddie intake decision makes a difference in accessories needed.

My Carter needs anew one and that would wake that engine up a bit
Thanks, Bob. Jegs has it in stock so I'll just swing by & pick one up.
Wow, you live that close to Jeg's Performance warehouse???
I'm gonna run the stock intake. What all do I need?
My cruise is all hooked up but not working. Any suggestions? I was gonna throw some vacuum at it & see what it does. Speedo is also off by about 7 at 65 (actual = 72). Not sure why.

I remember the days when you could go to the local speed shop and pull anything off the shelf for a 1971 anything
Yep & they also have 2 retail stores within 15 minutes of my house. I can have any item in their inventory delivered to the retail store before it opens the next day.
That is very nice!
I do too. Those days are long gone.

It's actually pretty awesome. I try to buy from Jegs whenever possible since they are such big supporters of local drag racing. Not to mention that they're a Columbus based company...

Actually, I think we're jealous
