Spent my first evening of the year in my stand last night. Within an hour had 5 bucks within range. Had to wait for this guy to come in the open. Arrow hit it's Mark at 32 yds and he expired 30 yds later. Not a giant around here, but he's still a dandy.

Sorry to hear about your kitty.Cats, dogs, whatever, they become family and it's hard to watch them go. My condolences

Once again, thanks to everyone for their thoughts, prayers and experiences.Jake is back home with his family where he's happy and resting comfortably. We had him cremated in his favorite blanket, Rest in peace buddy!!!! Love you

Thank you so much for that! Can't wait for Lori to get home and let her read it. Tears will flow again I'm sure, but not tears of sadness. Thanks my friend

Alot of you know that giant emptiness there is when you walk in after work, and they aren't standing at the door smiling and wagging. That's gonna take awhile to get over I know

I'm not a real emotional person in general. But I cried like a baby when he closed his eyes. Reading all the thoughts and prayers,and similar experiences from a bunch of people I've never met in person, has kinda renewed my faith in mankind, and is really weighing heavy on my heart. Seems we all...

I'll look for some old pics I have when he was younger. Up until he was about 9, he'd come running everytiEV I fired up the dart and stand by the passenger door. He looked so proud riding around in that bucket seats with his head out the window

Had to take our 13yo golden retriever in yesterday and and let him go to heaven. Found out 2 weeks ago his chest and abdomen we're full of masses. He acted normal, was always happy, and ate like a horse. The vet said he was showing no signs of stress or suffering but it was only a matter of...

I've been trying to find an older Dakota, standard cab, plain Jain beater to build a nasty little street machine. Have a 4.56 8 3/4 and 727 trans. Going to refresh the old solid lifter 340 out of my dart and would love an old Dakota to put it in

I had an old primer grey, 69 dart GT with a fiberglass 6 pack hood that was my daily driver for years. Winter, summer, fishing, hunting, it went everywhere. At the time it was all I had, on weekends id clean it up and drive it to the strip now and then, but mainly just put a hurting on high...

Love the steel wheels painted body color on a sleeper

I'm building a warranty 340 shortblock right now. No tags or vin

Think I'm gonna get a new set of springs regardless. Also might try to find a NEW set of iron adjustable rockers and good pushrods. The old 273 rockers have served their purpose well, but I'll sleep better knowing there's new ones under those stock valve covers.lol

I'm still trying to find the old paperwork from these heads to see what all was done. I know Dad spent a TON of money on them at the time when he was racing, but never installed them

Got the shortblock disassembled and looks immaculate. Took block and heads to machine shop that my dad used 40 yrs ago. And yes, still the original owner. Cane hear well, but he knows his ****. He said it would run just fine with only a light hone. Said there's room for improvement on decks to...

Tomorrow is last day here. Usually the first week is best, but the weather pushed everything back a couple weeks here. Even the mushrooms are just now starting to come on good

He should be done smoking by the time I get back from hunting this morning.

Good morning boys and girls. Working on my first pot of coffee. Getting ready to go fill my turkey tag. Filled my archery tag yesterday. Got one with 1 1/4" Spurs and 10 1/2" beard. My biggest to date. Taking the 12ga this morning to fill my landowner tag. Not many other reasons to get up this...

Yeah, 2k for a clutch, in a motor I'm building out of nos old school parts isn't going to happen

Thanks. I'll probably do that. Ive always like this one, never had a problem and it works good. Knocks the tires of in all 4 gears haha. Which is kinda what I want. Not winning strip wars, but it sure is impressive to the young bucks that think they're fast.

Not going to be much strip time anymore. Mostly just cruising with a heavy foot an the back roads, and showing the impoet and mustang kids how a funny looking antique car can wipe the smirk right off there face. Thanks for the info, but I think going the custom clutch route is a little overkill...

Any suggestions on an affordable clutch to put behind it? The Hayes has been in there for 40 years and has taken more then it's share of abuse. Might just see if they still make that one. Although I'm sure none of them are built like they were back then

Oh I'm definitely leaving the 4.88 gear right where it's at. This car doesn't go on long trips anymore. That carbs been great. It's been on there for over 40 yes now. I'm thinking I'll probably use the 780 awhile when I install the engine, then switch to a double pump and work on the tune.

Yup, I know the one your talking about. Ysed them on a few other intakes with square bore carbs

I may see if I can find one. They seemed to be the hot setup, and I like the vintage look

I see theyve got that funky spreadbore flange like the m1

Don't think an m1 or Victor would be much of an improvement?

Probably gonna replace the 40 yo Hayes clucth and pressure plate too. Things worked great and never came thru the can.lol not sure what the hot street strip clutch is now days, and I sure as hell ain't going automatic

Yeah there's gonna be some block prep, but the crank pistons and rods are staying. They're brand new, and the 40 yo motor I'm replacing proves they work. Along with the 273 rockers! Just wondering what good modern single plane to use. Probably time for a carb too

That's the whole point of it. Using old school parts that worked then and work now. Plus I already have them. Everyone says you need aluminum heads, this and that. The heads I'm using were ported and set up by R&j performance. Anyone that knows their work knows what they're capable of
