What other Hot Rods you own?
 
A little off topic but I thought it might be cool to see what else you guy's play with besides your S/SS racer. I absolutely love Stockers, but have never been able to fully invest my time & money into making my car legal. I go to all the races so I can to see friends & take pictures. Here is my girl and I wouldn't change her. Original 68.5 R-code Cobra Jet.

Since I'm building a stocker from scratch, this is the only other thing with a motor that I can afford to drive.

Bought this in '88 when I was a junior in high school, and it was my daily driver until halfway through senior year when I decided to do some rust repair. That turned into new GM quarters, fenders, header panel, and door skins, repro tail panel, rockers, floor pans, , and hood. Was a 327/210 PG originally, now is a 406 w/ 700R4 and 4.11 gear.
A buddy and I drove it from Omaha to Austin, TX and back about 10 years ago...it did pretty well, pulling down around 15 mpg with a 4779 Holley.

I had a 500 triple in 74, I don't remember a disc brake on them?
That thing was a death trap but it was fun and I survived.

They were nicknamed the Widowmaker. 75 HP and 350 lbs wet. In my young and dumb days would wheelie for what seemed miles. I ran low 12's with it at Golden Triangle Raceway in Beaumont, Tx. 3500 to 7500 rpm it was wicked. Never put it on the ground, your right; fun and I survived. Phish

Well, not a hot rod, but here is my other fun vehicle, which is incredibly dear to me.

1974 IHC Scout II. Purchased impromptu while taking a walk on a visit back to my parents in my home town in NJ with my finance (now my wife) with $500 cash, and then driven back home to Pittsburgh. It was a rusted mess, with almost no floor boards and less than half the exhaust system. Had the hard top on it at that time. By the time I got to Pittsburgh I had a CO headache like you cant imagine. Did a partial restore on it, and it then it took me to my wedding with my best man, and then unexpectedly (happened to take it to work that day when I got the call) to the birth of my second son.

Decided that given all that sentimental value it deserved a complete resto. I will never sell it.

I had a '72 and my neighbor had a '74. He redid his a couple times and I would get his cast-off parts. I had Denco street chambers, the sound was unreal. With all the vibration, chicks dug it.

That Scout is super RAD! What a fun vehicle and a cool pic too.
