Hello Battlestar Galactic!
For you folks that aren't Ford nuts, Larry races a wheelstanding 427 powered 64 Galaxie....
 
Uh Oh!!!! I've been founded out. Dangit I can't go anywhere LOL!!! Guess since I'm not "John Smith" it is kinda hard to hide?

True story: Just last weekend a racer that just started running with our stick group came over and was talking. He tells me "you know how wide your fan base is?" He then states: I stopped on Rt36(middle of nowhere) coming over here this morning to get some ice. The guy behind the cash register sees my UMTR shirt and asks if I run with the stick group. I told him "yes". He then asks if I know that "wheel standing station wagon Battlestar?". He says "yes, I know Larry". The racers then tells me "You're my hero". LOL! How's that song go by ZZ Top? I'm bad, I'm nationwide? LOL!

OH, by the way, the funnels Charlie set WERE red!!!

To sort of get things back on topic...

I finally got the little 108 done to where I wanted it. I've already gotten the gorilla tape on the seat too. It looks a little better. It runs great and should be a fine addition to the herd. I was really amazed of how good of shape this tractor is in. There was no excessive wear or welding abuse and it has all of the original, correct fasteners. If I were interested in making a trailer queen this one might get picked.

As can be seen, the #2 needs some attention as well but it's way down the list right now. It's in good shape as well; just needs a new skin.

Oops, sorry, I'll keep this more on topic. Here's my 149 that I put the new driveshaft in. Had it about 8 yrs now. Runs perfect.
