Looks great but you need a jet in it to be The Green Monster.I saw it run a few times here.Old Art was from Akron and a pioneer in those cars.I think I have some pics from when it ran at Quaker and Tompson.Rocky

Thanks guys, still a long way to go till the finished project.
yes Fran i'm switching fm roots to an F2 procharger non intercooled for now.Been 11 yrs runnin with roots thought it was time for a change, then looked at the body & paint and that needed attention.After seeing that Snakeskin green Duster on show field at Norwalk CC 2 yrs ago with Kam Kuda, Doc Doug, Firefighter & Stig jr i decided that was the color! I'm also changin rims over to Weld magnum's with gold centers. Looking forward to Sept to race & hang out with the gang at Norwalk again, will be bringing down the Canadian beer to share!

Steve your 500 is awesome!

Thanks Randy & Kevin, it's a decent 20 footer. As for the 440...I keep my eye on craigslist, but my extra money is paying for 2 kids braces right now...who am I kidding, I never have extra money. But at least my kids will have good looking teeth.

Steve..I commend You for your choice in priorities! Kids should ALWAYS be #1! If I had an "extra" 440 layin' around,I'd sell it to ya cheap!...unfortunately,I don't! With the way I drive the X...I REALLY should have a back-up! You've got a VERY NICE '500'! You should be proud of it!
