That car and the Ranchero are incredibly awesome cars, love them both.

Think I saw a picture of it with that custom at a show...looked a lot like it with same engine.   Cant remember where..I will see if I saved the pic and post it later.

I like just about everything this car has, but,... I can't see any front brakes..When I got my 1st ranchero in 69, someone had pinched off the rear brakes. Didn't take me long to find that mod and change it back.

HaHaHa....I guess he just couldn't get his eyes off the engine.

It is truly an event that has to be seen.A bunch of guys from Texas,Maryland,California and Europe always attend.It was suppose to be a 1 day event.It now gets going with shop tours,etc,etc from the Thursday to the Sunday.The ELTA guys have there club house across the street from Hartmans and there shop is like a Museum.
Sorry to go O/T. Delete is needed.

Looks like my kind of car show! It sure looks like the front wheels are off the ground on that front engine dragster!
