Busy day for me too. Went to a local show and won a top 10 award. I was really surprised because there were so many beautiful cars there. I wanted to post a pic, but I am having a problem uploading pics tonight. So I will get a couple up tomorrow. To tired after being out in the 90+ degree sun for many, many hours today. But it was nice to turn on the a/c for the ride home.

Hey, just a question. Is the El Camino, behind you in your trophy pic, driving down the railroad tracks ?

I need to take the transmission off my 72 truck motor which is in back of my 74 Chevy truck but its so hot I cant seem to get motivated .I then need to clean the oil off the motor and take it to have a new cam and all new gaskets put in as it leaks oil everywhere there is a gasket due to it sitting all those years before I bought it. It ran strong and never smoked but leaked oil everywhere it was parked and I dont care for the Hot Rod cam that is in it .

I borrowed my father's green 72' yesterday and went to the local Hooters for a small car show. Got caught in a nasty rain storm on the way home. Haven't had much time or decent weather lately to work on the car, it's depressing.

Thanks Ray.

flash, I feel for you. This heat is unbearable. Please be careful, you already had a close call in this heat. I wish I was closer cause me and Jacob would be over to help you out.

After a busy weekend, and picking up my grand daughter today. I did nothing with my car. It might sit all week, as the weatherman has predicted rain til Friday. That is all right, as long as the weekend of August 2nd is nice.

Mine has just been sitting under a cover, hadn't felt like working on it the last couple of days. I have a big show in a couple of weeks that I need to fix a couple of small issues so I can drive it there,

Flew up to NYC and drove out to Long Island yesterday to do some Chevelle shopping...
Bounced thru some pretty good storms along the East coast last night. It's HOT everywhere!!
