----I owned a low mileage 63 Jetfire a long time ago. Guys that knew anything about them (few and far between) called the methanol mix "Moose Milk". I didnt keep the little bugger long as it only had about 7000 original miles on it and someone offered me way more for it than I paid. It was a really nice little car and always turned heads......Bill S

Got the Turbo Rocket running this weekend. I am amazed at the power, especially on the top end! I am sure this would beat many stock small block muscle cars. And this car is LOW. The top of the body above the door handle is 34" above the ground. Only 2750 lbs also. Is this an early Muscle Car?

Bill--I remember that car. You brought it to the JNS restaurant one morning when we used to stop there for coffee.
