Did anyone get a pic of Will-n-Denver's Stripper Shirt? He wore it for the applebees breakfast/awards a few years ago.

Some know him as "Mr Downpipe" and still have nightmares from the pics, others may recognize him as Double A, Will_in_Denver, Will_in_China, Klinger, Aaron... whatever floats your boat.

NICE! The only thing I noticed was the exhaust manifolds...get them coated! :) Same w/ exhaust housing and dp....it's amazing how you can touch them after you have driven and not get burned.

Awesome pics. That makes me want to go, assuming I have the funds and the truck is running in time. I would have to prepare to be heckeled for having a carb'd V8 truck though:rotf:

A few from the very first "national" gathering...
(Actually, international, Richard came over from England)


Springfield, MO

1995

There were actually more trucks that showed up the next day. It was a big car show, one of the CarCraft/Special Events deals.

Left to right ... ? #689, Dave Kripal's Ty, Ron (APE fuel pumps) Gregory, ?

Todd (Austinson, of ultimate chip fame) was planning on showing, but he broke the schrader valve part of the fuel rail off backing it out of the driveway.

We drank a lot of beer, polished and re-polished. They were still relatively new then.



The notorious "sleeper" pics... about 1 mile of old Route 66.
These were taken along the way to Springfield.

More to come... Dang, I've got a lot of stuff from years gone by. Old HAN stuff, early Nats.
GLG1, shop photos from the 1st Sy to have a wide-band on it outside of GM...

Later,
