68 Valiant

Larry Snipes.. I remember that dude.. lived off of Stonybrook Blvd. Had that ex-racecar Chevelle with a tunnel ram and 2 silver painted Q jets on it (snicker).
He raced (and lost to) a friend of mine's Nova that ran high 12's on nitrous down on Abbot Drive in the good old days. Which was sweet since Larry came down after the auto show bragging it up and cutting down my buddy's Nova... he he he. I seem to remember him having a little trouble with the cops afterwards too.

Had another buddy named Todd Vermilya who had a 67 427 Chevelle and a 4WD 76 Pinto wagon.. he used to take the 67 by Larry's place and intimidate him..

Seems to me Larry later had a dark blue 75ish Monte Carlo with a huge mailbox on the hood too. One of the big Monte's...
Sorry if it sounds like I'm trashing Larry.. I didn't mean to. I didn't know him, just knew who he was.

Getting back to the present day, looks like you are making some good progress on your Valiant. Thanks for the inspiration.
