Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
We lost a killer engine the first race on a Western swing in Ga. Cam failure, I was done. Found a car and bought it.

Still making parts like each other. Elephant is still very grounded. We are still looking for the magic feather or magic dust like Santa uses.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Larry, your doing a great, quality job and making good time on it! Hell, I've been working on my DP for 3 years and will be lucky to have it complete by the Fall Classic at Indy ( this year...I hope...maybe).
Can't wait to see your completed Drag Pak at the Track. I'll try not to drool on it.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Found a used topper for my truck so I can travel with my engine secluded, dry, and out of sight. Topper was born black but painted white, of course my truck is black. And so it goes.....
Everybody have a great Fourth Of July, and please remember the brave folks that made it happen! |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
I know what you are going through. RJ and i built our Cobra Jet from scratch. You will go through every emotion there is to say the least. The satisfaction when the car fires up for the first time makes it well worth it. There area few people who still build there cars from scratch and Mr Heath is one of them. We were use to working on older types of cars so the learning curve was pretty steep. Keep up the good work.
