Mat,

How did you deal with the Frame?

Marty.

Progress is slow but the Coupe is coming right along. Stanley Morton has the rotating assembly and the block working his magic on my 408 stroker and we are awaiting Keith Craft to finish the heads and top end. All things should come together in a week or so. Bryan Anderson is just about to finish all the final touches to the Body and then we can start making some serious progress with hopes of having it track ready for Putnam Park in Indiana in April.

My Cobra is running quite well and the only thing I have done to it is replace my fuel rail which seems to have made a tremendous difference in the throtle response. Went to AN 8 lines and a bigger fuel rail I found at the speed shop.

It's been cold outside but the shop is nice and warm, presently disassembling the frame so I can do the finish welding, got the 302 going back together and still working on the honey-do's so the house will be ready in the spring. I have spent more $ on blowing snow this year then ever, I'm on my third 5 gal can of gas just since November, and my machine is only an 8 hp model 28 in wide. Speaking of cold yesterday was -15 and today it's -11 and could get a little lower, good news is by Sunday it should be in the 20's, time to hit the beach,ha,ha. At least the shop is comfy at 60-65* from my wood stove.

What is this "SNOW" you speak of?

It's what we get instead of rain, only problem is it keeps accumulating until the weather gets warm enough to melt it, maybe by the 4th of july. Most of us up here don't take our cars out until after it has rained a couple times to wash the salt off the roads.

I've been notified that I'm a marked Man now after that post. I suspect a Tar and Feathering in the Spring if we get Snow. Better steer clear of Claremore and a Yellow Saturn Sky Driver!
