Hey, Mike B., that sounds really fun. Wish I could get in on it.
I'm heading out to the local strip to see what my "Ruby" will do.
Being a 1/2 ton with mods I am sure they will let me run,
especially if I have cash in hand and ready to pass out. That
most always reduces the size of the argument. I promised that
I would take the wife and son for one run each. I assume I can
get two or three passes before I tow it home?
Mike and Stan. Let me/us hear how it comes out.

'53, V8, 4sp, and skinny tires, smokem if you gotem.
