Default Finally did it

Well I put my deposit down on a 6-71 blower 2x4barrell carbs and a scoop for the 76 should be here in a couple weeks, now I gotta get my butt busy and shovel out the doors to the toy box so I can get her out, and into the garage. This is gonna be a great summer.

Jack hammer :lolg: I just installed zuse fasteners on a friends hood had to do some trimming. I used a dremel with a cut off wheel it worked great because it is very easy to hold and maneuver and cuts the glass like butter.
