Great weekend with Bill Allphin. Photobombed Jay Leno, cruised the coast in a classic convertible, met Jay Leno’s car painter who was impressed with my work, and Cheryl’s car took first place in the class. What shall we do next year?
Great weekend at Spring Fling

Jim, we were waiting in line to get into the swap sat. morning when you came cruising by and my brother pointed out your car and remarked how good it looked rolling down the street. i told him that he needed to check it out and later after we were situated he went to go have a peek. on returning i asked him what he thought and his reply was: that thing is amazing!
pictures don't do it justice, in person the work and attention to detail is astounding.

Your Dart is Awesome! A little out of the box which makes it super cool... Great meeting you & Bill... It was a great weekend!
Great meeting you too Randy, and your posse. Its 1:20AM and we are almost home.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing all the pictures. Your car looks great. 
When I had my 64 Vert it was fun taking it to Springfling especially the Malibu Cruz.

The show was great. Seen dozens of friends and more friendly faces. Saturday was great, Sunday the swap meet was crazy good. I picked up a collection 8 3/4 housings for a friend that converts them to a-body length. Even scored a Dana 60 for my 1971 Charger. Seemed like better parts and better prices were on Sunday.

i had two a-body 8.75's at the swap, one was ready to bolt in complete with shock plates the other needed brakes. didn't sell either. lots of questions, but the interest seemed to be more what they were worth as each person would say: oh, i have half a dozen at home. (probably right next to their multiple hemi's and 6 pack set ups)
sunday was way lighter than sat, but there were still good parts and serious buyers. i didn't go look at the horse so i don't know what the price was. reason being is that if i went to go look i probably would've bought it!
Looks like it was awesome days for everyone to enjoy. Your car is a sweet ride. Kim

Jim, great car.
People really double took on the dual carb setup. You made it very clean and sanitary. Well executed.
