good deal Ken. Those are great pictures and they were the days. I would love to own your L79 car. What a set-up you guys had. Truly real car people you guys. So at one point in your life you were almost Italian. Boy you almost hit it big. YEAA! Thanks for sharing.

that car reminds me of seeing Grumps L79 car back in the day. Take the hub caps off, open the headers, mount the slicks and run. YEAAAA!
