    Well It's Finally Home!! :bananamanI got it back home at 11:45 pm Friday night.:cry: (Sorry I did not call Craig but it was so late I did not want to bother you). The car has a few issues that I did not see in the pics but overall a great little car for the money! Runs and looks good! I transfered the title and tagged it Saturday morning. :drive:Can not wait to show her off! Where's the 1st mini meet!! My wonderful wife took a few shots of it in the drive way with the sprint but I can not get the photo to load! I will try to upload some later on.

    No worries Jerry. If we would have hooked up....I would have put you behind by at least an hour or so!!

    I have an MCCI Indiana mini-meet in August coming up....so you will have to try and attend.

    Thanks John,
    At least now I know how to post a photo!! It has a valve cover leak and a little seepage under the carb but other than that runs pretty good. Compared to the grabber it is a little slow (4 holes compared to 2 + the cam) but it starts within the 1st 2 cranks. I had Dads truck in the other bay so the Stallion and the Sprint spent last night out side. We have that taken care of now!
    Thanks Guys
    Jerry

    It's always nice to find an unmolested car.
