Thanks Rick... Yeah pretty awesome. We had a good size crowd hanging out waiting and checking out my buddies cars. When Chris came rolling in there was a group gathering behind as he drove in to park. Well received.

John - was more of a sleep over. She spent the nigh in my garage then went back to Cloverdale last night in preparation for West Coast Nats. It was awesome getting to drive her to and from the show though.

Chris headed out for the 80 mile trip back about 4. Around 4:20 my cell rings. Guess who? He tells me he stopped for gas and was leaving for the highway when she died. Thankfully he was still in town so I shot down and with the help of a couple car guys we pushed her back into the parking lot. The Holley blue pump died. Chris' wife went to the shop, grabbed the hauler and came to pick up the car.

Gotta have more pictures.
Thanks... We received many complements both days. It was nice having Chris, the builder, there to give him the credit and have the chance to share details on the car.

The journey isn't over yet. Chris reminded me last night that he said it would break down 3 times... Have 2 more to go. But yes, the finish line is very near.

The rebuild Quickfuel seems to be fine. If anything goes wrong, Holley gets the order.

Yeah great night. Get to drive my car for the first time in 3.5 years. Tucked her in the garage then went for pizza and some great wine with the guys.

Jeff,

That is one impressive saga.

As a friend of mine used to say... "Temporary inconvenience for permanent improvement."

Jeff congrats on a (mostly) successful outing! Driving your car and having a sleepover must've felt great

Don't sweat the issues. Comes with the territory. You'd laugh at my motorsports saga this weekend!
