That's cool stuff. We'll have to figure out what's wrong with the handheld Hawk Tach/Dwell I have here. One is same you've got for sale - it was still in its box never used when I got it.

open it up bet a capacitor is leaking.
 
Caught a little show before work yesterday. Only about 30 cars. Check out this little sleeper. Don't know exactly what size, but Ford V8 in a Subaru.

Here's a pic of my cousins hubby with one of the smaller chinook we hooked. Last one was over 25lbs, wish they could have kept it and shipped it to AZ.

Gotcha! My Twister has the twin scoops but not functional. Was thinking of making them functional but most of the setups I’ve seen cover up the carb, not the look I’m going for. So keeping with the flat black and yellow color scheme thinking i’ll the same route. Like maybe a fiberglass six pack hood.

Nice you have a Twister, I like those. Since mine won't be original (/6 car) I will be other things to it, like a shark tooth grill.
 
Guess I will go pull a couple wheels off the wifemobile (Journey) to check brakes. Goes in for inspection Friday. Then heading over to Dave's later. Should get my grass mowed this evening. Out of control with all the rain and more coming. Too wet right now or I would be out there mowing this morning

That works with the engine number. I'm guessing now the L was probably an E. After 340 there may be an R or P and then 2750 0156, making it a '69.
I'll have to go look for the VIN on the pan rail or the bellhousing rail.

There should be a P after the 340 to signify that 340's ran on premium fuel because of the 10.5 compression...

Yeah i’m with ya, mine is in no way original. Was a /6, not anymore! About the only thing at this point that’s original is most of the body, paint and glass!

To be honest, haven’t researched or thought that far ahead yet. :lol:

I have a lift off. Unless you're wanting to save the 12 pounds for the hinges and 2 pounds on the hood for race purposes, I'd go with one with hinges. They're reinforced a bit stronger than the lift offs. Plus no drilling. A lift off needs drilled for the pegs to keep it on

I'll try to clean it up more today. I couldn't peak in the spark plug holes to see if the pistons may be the original dome type, but I was told they may be. The engine was rebuilt with a 292 purple shaft and the guy I bought it from didn't have a lot of the details. All the plugs and valves indicate it was running pretty clean, although probably idling rich. I also will clean up around that crack.

Bill passed away a few years ago. He has been a Legendary member here since. Google his name.
