Saw both of these cars at the Cruise In. You guys made the long haul from Florida. 
I just wish I would have gotten to meet both of you. Maybe next year.

Chris,
you're still wondering about my HarborFreight drills ??? ....
I still have that 4150 Holley carb that needs a cleanup and possibly rebuild..... I removed it from my '79 in 2005.... maybe I should have cleaned it before I stored it in a box.... you think AutoZone's carb cleaner gets it clean ???

I got a drill press from HD.... returned it within 24hrs and got my money back.... what a piece of junk.... they should not be allowed to legally sell this garbage.....
hey, if you want to drill 1/4" holes in styrofoam this drill press is the one for you...
ok , let's get back on track here.... 5000 posts, almost three years and lots of reasons to celebrate the big moment ....
the car changed ride height, color, HP output, tire size, steering wheel diameter and transmission.....
driver is still the same ....
what's your story of the past 3 years ???

I guess I am confused too. I saw two corvettes at the Hampton, one was a 79 and one was an 80. The tag on one said 1BAD79 and the other was 1BAD80. One was red, the other blue. I just assumed it was those two cars in the pics you posted.
You did come to the Cruise In, right?
