No it was actually pretty clean we just had to make more room and we would probably never run it so it was one of the first to go

Nothing really to update. It's snowed a lot in Kansas the past few weeks or so. But I've already got a paint scheme for this beast. A guy who has helped me and dad work on cars hauled tools and cars to derbies for us for a long time passed away today. Well in memory of him I'm painting this thing black with gold letters just like he used to and for some reason he thought I was luckier with pink bumpers so that'll be done too ;D but please everyone keep Greg Close and his family in your prayers

Besides the rockers and right behind the front tires it an extremely clean car. And for anyone who has never seen it if you look at the humps you can see a strap welded over it that's the top package that came on some of the Buick and Olds
