Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
Man I can't believe this thread is still going strong after all these years. I guess the last time I logged in when I was looking to work on the dragtruck's replacement was 5.5 years ago and I haven't touched it since. Lately I got the bug again, you sent some status pics to me, and I'm sitting here shopping for some parts. No chance of me turning this one into a drag truck again. But man is it nostalgic to see the old one and it does fire me up. Hope to have the LS powered one going by summer to fall of next year. I had started a thread for it too years ago back when I had the frame media blasted. I will have to go look to see if it is still there. Truck looks good man. Love some of the changes, and love to see some of the original stuff that only myself and you would remember.
