Got some 1/4 mile passes with it back a few weeks ago, drove it to Texas Motorplex (~130 miles, trailer in tow), made 5 passes, and drove back home, trouble free.

I decided I'd work on a few little projects this weekend, then we got it tucked away and ready for the haul to Indiana Friday (ahhhhhh, finally almost time..)

I'll be posting updates to our website each day during Drag Week - http://www.acmeautopartsonline.com/blog

One thing that's bugged me the last few months is not having the lower grill, and not wanting to spend the money on a repro one that I'm not sure would fit in there with the way things are kind of deflected down there. So begins the cheap ass kinda hokey lower grill project..

Step one, hack it down to the appropriate height with the bandsaw..


Scotch Brite, Trim Black..


Shoot a few screws in the top and it's..well, better than it was..


Gave it a quick wash and a blast down the road to make sure everything's still kosher, and it's time to put it to bed..



The little trailer fits like a glove behind it
