    Only Bill has to pay the $20, right? You'll post the photos/video for the rest of us to see?

    You know the rule, No photos = it didn't happen.

    Actually, Wayne is being modest. He is on the crew for this car. This shot shows him handling gas man duties with the owner/driver:

    Thanks for posting all of these Wayne! Its especially great to see all the detail photos of the engine bay!!!

    Quick question - which chassis number is that blue #23 one in the photos? It appears to be a converted 427 street car ... has the street dash, but has a comp windshield and mirrors (and the street windshield holes have been blocked off). I'm guessing from the patina on the seats alone that its a true CSX chassis, right?

    - John
    Mk 3.1 - FFR6671 - "Trying" to recreate a Semi-Comp 427...
    427ci FE Big-Block / Pin-Drive IRS / TKO600 / Smiths Gauges / SC Dash / 15" Goodyear Billboards
    Fabrication (the fun stuff): 427 Throttle Pedal (SS) : AC Pedals on Wilwood Arms : CSX E-Brake Lever : CSX-Style Footbox Vents (SS) : CSX-Style Dash Support Tubes & Recessed Dash : CSX-Style F-Panels : Firewall Forward 4" : "Full" Rear Drop : Recessed Bulkhead & Exposed Rollbar ... hopefully the list continues!

    The blue car is an original CSX, I'm not sure of the number though
