Russ Dunmire maiden voyage!
 

Purchased from a post here on Yenko.net from Kevin Suydam...So long ago I don't remember...

The 'Russ Dumire' former NHRA stock class record holder.

Until an hour ago, I had never driven the car...today I DROVE it to it's winter resting spot...yipee!!

We remember what happened the LAST time this car was driven..right? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

Hey Sammy, Like the way I got the front end 'sky' jacked???

Everybody sez what the hell is going on...and I get wood every time I see it!

It is so high I had to put ball joint spacers in it and remove the snubbers!!

Re: Russ Dunmire maiden voyage!
 

Very nice Jim. More pix and how does she drive! Straight headers?

Re: Russ Dunmire maiden voyage!
 

Let's see some details too!

Re: Russ Dunmire maiden voyage!

Love to see more pictures of the restoration too.

Great job!!

Plans to letter it?

Re: Russ Dunmire maiden voyage!
 

Yep, It will be lettered back to original when everything else is done. I'm getting to old to restore cars. I beleive this one will be the last.

You can see some resto pictures at my site..I haven't updated it in YEARS as I'm not in touch with the guy who built the site for me
