Re: Progress or lack there of



I'll have to build a marine poly? I do think it's open though as I called and the recording was date specific and said they will be racing this Fri, etc.. Keep your fingers crossed.

Thanks for the update. "Progress" is always a one step forward. one step sideways process. Things always take more time than first plan!

Missouri water? You can think about a conversion to this:

But that conversion would take a lot of work on a 1964 Dodge. Heh heh.  I did see a picture of a "start" project for the second one of those built in the UK:  http://www.amphicars.com/DSCF4005a.JPG  Wow. And I thought 62-65 Mopar cowl repairs were a pain!

Seriously, I bet if you contact the police they can tell you if the drag strip is open. Hope so, and let us know how it turns out! And fell better too.

Thanks,
Gary H.
