New tires and maybe new shocks. I think there's a tenth hiding in my old heap if I look for it. (An 11.20 at our elevation is a 10.99 at sea level, and I've gone 11.28...) New trailer and getting back to the track are first on the agenda, though.

Hey Mark........You didn't happen to buy that Henry J from a Larry or Jerry Smothers, did you? I'm related to them and they live in Louisville and I see you're in Kentucky.......Larry passed away with cancer and his son Jerry owned the car and it had a tilt front end too......

No Big, I got this old car from a couple friends back around 1969. It had been a gasser with a blown Olds for power. This car is actually a Sears Allstate, but there is very little difference from the Henry J.
I have lived in Louisville most all my life, and now am about 35 miles out in the sticks.
If you click on the Jim Marsh link in my sig you can see a picture of the car as it appeared in the 60s and one of the guys I bought it from.

Take my Charger to the dragstrip & not have it blow up when I see what it will run.

To race without technical problems, be ready when the season starts, run solidly in the 7's and win the national championship.

Break into the 11s.

It's running 12.5@114 on 8 year old 205/70/14 Firestone street tires....

I'm ordering up some new rims and 275/60/15 ET streets in the next few days. Tires and some tuning should get me pretty close (fingers crossed!).

Hmmm...

1. Get The 'Pig back together in time for when the tracks open in the spring.

2. Bust into the 10.4s (or quicker) w/ the same basic 440 + flat-tappet combination that's already gone 10.5s.

3. Make it through the year w/o having mechanical issues.

4. Finish my next engine and see how much quicker & faster it can go w/ more "serious" heads and a street roller cam.

Wayne,
I can't say as I have had the pleasure of meeting Mike French. Is he the guy that owned the "Brown Sugar" Barracuda?

I'd like to make a high 11 second pass in my Duster. Doubt it will happen but I'll have fun trying.
