'68 Update

The only part left to be put on the car is the trim that goes on the quarter panel and the only reason it's not on now is I don't know it gets bolted to the panel. The carpet has been ordered and is on the way and should get installed next week. I'll take some photos of it when we do the paint detailing here real soon.

My friend Mike went racing yesterday, my car was legal for any of the classes so it stayed home, and he had a bad day. It started with the electric fan not working that turned out to be a bad ground and had it working again but in the process we found a chocolate milk shake. Your wondering what that is, cause it's not the kind you can drink. Well, when you find oil in your radiator the oil floats to the top so when your looking in the filler hole you see what looks like a chocolate shake. This is bad really because it usually means you have a blown head gasket or a cracked block, but it can also mean loose head bolts but not likely. So with all this the car ran SLOW!! The week before it was running 11.91 @115 mph, yesterday it was 12.09 @ 113 mph and for the second run even slower, 12.30 @112 mph, did I say SLOW. Sadly this means the car is going to the shop for some tests to determine what the problem is, should be there tomorrow morning.

I'll be at the track this coming weekend, plan on going up Friday and Saturday at this point, but if Mike's car is broken it'll probably just be Saturday.
