But my recent trade has given me a whole new appreciation.. 8319744-IMG_1483.JPG (69 downloads) 1972 Road Runner / GTX 440 4spd Dana 3.54 Just about to turn 26K original miles.. A boat, a GMC truck, some Craftsman Tools, LOTS of Zombie Protection, and a few Goldfish.. If you love someone set them free.. If they come back it means nobody else wanted them either..!!

Funny thing is I race A bodys but I have always wanted a B body race car. The early ones do have the most character. Same here as I had A-bodies all my life but always wanted a 63 Plymouth Max Wedge looking car and if not for my good friend Ken Wiley I would not have had the chance to get my dream car. I could never afford a real Max Wedge car but a good friend made me a nice deal to get my 63 Sport Fury. Another good person in this hobby. Ron
