Hvac that is some cool stuff. Where did you race dirt track? Do you still have it? Lets get back into it! Skargo that is sick that you guys have a place to rock climb, we here on long island have nothing. We do have a lot of water though.

All those cars are cute and sweet... but slow!

Here's me in 1975... 500hp V-8 trike. Driving it ONCE was enough! :D

Re: You guys have any hot rods or race cars

I've had everything from 69 Chevelle, 70 Chevelle SS, 71 Nova SS, the list goes on. I have nothing like that right now but kind of looking around for a decent older pickup truck. Something that I can haul my boat around with and have a bit of fun during the week. I have an 89 GMC Jimmy right now, but it's getting quite rough. It's an old Police vehicle.

Re: You guys have any hot rods or race cars

I still have some of the kawasaki triples I had in my youth :D

Here's my '73 H1 500 after being in storage 22 years. It's actually running in the picture.

Since then, I've completely stripped the frame and repainted it with epoxy paint, rebuilt the engine and am putting it back together.

It will look similar to this one ( NOT MY CYCLE )

I was lucky enough to find an original body set.

Nice stuff in this thread!

The funny thing is, my tow rig has the most power out of anything I own. :redface:
