They aren't going to race it, at least not at Bonneville. They were in their way home from El Mirage. I'm sure it will get raced against something somewhere. What a cool hill climb rig! They spotted a few other pieces. John had picked up a Frontinac head the day before and I mentioned I had a valve cover for one of those. He bought that but after they were gone I remembered I have the piece to cover the ports on the block. It was hanging on the wall I'm surprised he didn't see it. It didn't hurt or make me sad. Maybe I can let some of this stuff go.
I also fired ip the '53 Tuesday. It has been sitting outside for a year. I charged the battery, primed the carb & it fired right up> I drove it to town and filled it with fresh gas and two cans. $135 bucks. Gas is/was $4.999. Biden did that! The last time I looked Nevada is only behind California & Hawaii in price.
