Yeah, that was a great read. The car is really reminiscent of the Modified class racers of the Seventies with it's 277 CID and 5-speed transmission. I'd love to know how high he wings that little motor before shifting! I bet it's 10,000 RPM +!

Great story, and a beautiful car. The only car that gives him a fit for class eliminations is the George & Duke Taylor 67 Camaro.
