Default She's Done!!!

Finally, the 74 is done. Fast Burn ZZ4, B&M 400, DeWitt Radiator, Spal Fans, Vette Brakes Street and Salom suspension, Complete frame off rebuild, new A-Fame & Trailing arm bushings, ball joints, universal joints, body mounts, interior, weatherstriping, Sanden AC, etc., etc. I do not know how to post pictures. I am just starting to post on my web page but I need to edit poictures before posting any more as they are too big. When I find a way to add pictures, I'll post them.

Pictures are posted at: http://home.comcast.net/~marioncole/...ome.html-.html

On the AccelPro, the Vette would just edge the Syclone. But coming out of the hole the Syclone would jump the vette with the vette coming on at higher speeds.
