Marty, we have a GNG super T 10. I know what your thoughts are haha. Gene Bichelmeier is a friend and local, we got it from him for hardly anything. Should get us off the trailer, we'll see about back on...

I thought I saw 7 county plates in one of the pics...now I know I didn't just dream it. Having Gene close by will be a huge help, as I'm sure you already know. There are lots of us within a couple hours of you if you ever need advice, parts, or whatever. Looking forward to seeing the car at the track!

Appreciate it Paul! Yeah my folks live just outside of Madison on Highway 81, where the shop is at. I actually live in Omaha. I'll add a picture of my super street camaro as some of you will probably recognize it.

Oh yeah, I recognize that car! It's funny you're building this particular car because Smiley (Jazynka) has one like it and has been talking about building a stick shift stocker out of it for a few years. It's good to finally get some more class racers from Omaha...this year it will be you, me, Frank Allen SS/E, and Chris Kennedy A/SA. Rumor has it Lehrke might jump in, too!

Just went through the thread. Nice work. The brake booster in the early photos gave me a jolt. Biggest thing I've ever seen, and right in the middle of the engine bay. Glad to see it gone. Currently working on getting manual brakes done right myself at this time.
