Boomer just sent me these pictures.

They finished the car today and it's ready for Bloomington tomorrow.

It's not the best picture but here is Jerry behind the wheel of his Chevelle after sitting in his garage since 1975. He said it felt like a new car.

Awesome stuff.

Any details on the engine build and what it made on the dyno?

Eric, the motor was built to stock specs except for the intake. Jerry even had his original camshaft.

They got 410hp on the dyno.
