No, we picked up another one. Did not know how old the glue backing was.

Car looks good!!! Gives a little incentive on the one in the wings. Too bad I missed your call, not everyday your phone says missed call from Glencoe,On. Stripes look good, easy part is done,them trunk stripes suck. Make sure you leave excess for the jambs.

Re: Gobi Yenko Deuce finds its way to EBaY
 
Republican? Marlin, do you have some sort of proof that accepting Gobi Beige as an attractive color is indicative that your soul is dying? If so, that's some very useful information, indeed. . I've become much more accepting of green and gold cars and didn't realize I may be on a personal downward spiral......

I'm always happy to see another deuce back out into the public eye no matter what color. Still to many just setting around getting more rusty by the day.

OK, that's a little TOO evasive. Just HOW MUCH fun????? (let's say, in seconds and tenths. ;))

Yes, we really enjoyed the show. Got to meet some different folks that knew about the car. One gave us a really good history lesson on the car on it's past owners. Happy to give some of you folks a chance to look the car over, and see how nice it really turned out to be. Tom Clary and Ken gave it a pretty good going over. We took a mil reader to it and 95+% of the car reads 3 mil. Pretty happy with that!

OK.............. So with the stock breather on, driving the water pump and fan and alternator., Fuel pump working, and mufflers in place....... Drum roll................ 384 horse @ 6400 rpm, and 374lb-ft. tourque. Stock GM camshaft and 12.3 compression.
I was fairly happy with that. First time I dyn'od a small bock. Baby steps for gains compared to a big block.
In coming air was 45 degrees F which did not hurt.

As far as the scattershield...., it was in the car, so we left it since we will race it. I do have the correct bell housing on the shelf, so maybe someday we will take that HEAVY thing out!
Peter
