Been so busy the past few weeks that there wasn't much time for test and tune sessions ahead of the car show, but this past Sunday my son and I got out to put some more miles and smiles into another shakedown run. Did some stop and go stuff in local daytime traffic, some 50 mph highway runs, and a couple 70mph cruises on the blacktop around me. The car drove like a dream considering the staggered bias ply setup, and rolled through the gears rather nicely. It launches well, stops good, and it's so much fun that I don't think I've switched the radio on once yet? :laugh:

Here's a couple clips from Sunday with another narrative. The sounds of the Muncie keeps me watching this one.

Being that the car is now nearing completion, here are a few added pictures of the car taken outside my home on Sunday. Still have to finish plumbing the line loc (was waiting on fittings), add a lock pawl to the pass door, and tweak one of the door panels a touch, and it is done!

Had a good little chat with the original owner again today. I sent him some pictures of the car and he thanked me for reminding him of his youth, and for mentioning him on the show card. He then sent me a text with this image attached. He told me that this was the license plate he had on the car when he returned to Texas with the Z/28 back in 1970.

Kinda fitting for the Day 2 car it was back then. I'm totally diggin it'

Cool, you should check out if that plate name is available in Alberta or maybe Manitoba when you get there and put that on the car. Like the rise of the Phoenix.

Got the car out for a nice highway rip today and stopped to grab a few pictures on my favorite bridge. Some of you will recognize this bridge from a picture I took with the 68 a few years ago. Beauty day for a cruise with my son today!
