Ok heres some pictures of some of the cars that attended the Bowling Green NMRA world finals…I tended to drift towards foxbodys hince theres a lot of pics of foxes in her. Fxbodys were well represented and were overall the faster group id say…there were some very fast foxes. I did not get pictures of all the cars…in fast nowhere near all of them. I can tell you it was a great weekend and I plan on doing this again.




 

 





















































































Saleens are my favorite



This car ran low 13s…it ran against the maroon SVO which ran 12.89

Really nice newer mustang

SVO, ran very well for being a turbo 4 cyl

One of the many really nice foxes there

A look of several cars waiting to run


Yes I was standing in the staging area and was at times directly behind the track watching the cars go

Here im actually standing behind the fence like I probably should have been most of the time

Saturday morning waiting to get through the gate

Just beautiful




REALLY CLEAN 4 eyed

Nice clean sn95

Another nice clean car

Clean lil mustang 2

Probably the oddest car there…Talked to this guy this is a fox coupe with classic front bumpers on it…the had to cut and section those bumpers as they were 2 inches too wide for the fox car. It looks strange but it was very well done and  very clean.

Another shot of that one

ok I am REALLY SORRY I really thought I had a build thread on here with tons of pictures but as it turns out I do not. I am starting one now and I will start from the start. I know you have seen some of the pictures but theres many you have not seen so lets begin. Tonight im posting pictures of body and interior stuff; no neither of these are finished but you can see where the car is going. This weekend I hope to get pictures of the MANY great parts I have for it. I have parts coming in almost every other day right now so I will struggle to keep you absolutely up to date but I will try. This has been a great project and I look forward to getting this car on the road and to some car shows as its going to be beautiful. you might think im crazy as you look at pics like "car show that things ugly" just bare with it and keep waiting to see the updates trust me.

56
Hideous wing and tip, yea if we buy it those got first
55
Has a decent and complete interior that’s a plus
54
Get the car home and one of the tires is coming off the rim
53
Front end shortly after she arrived home
52
51
Top is bad
50

48
Trunk was full of unspent 22 bullets and lots of ants…like millions of ants
47
Back seat has to go its full of ants
46
Dash is in pretty good shape
45
Yup that goes as well
44
Yes I buffed the paint so I could see just how dirty the car really was
43
Body is STRAIGHT! That along makes this car worth that $500
42

16
This is the reason I did the strip for, this was the only spot of rust on the whole car and it was hiding under the original paint…Had I just sanded the original paint a little bit and put paint on top of that I would have rust coming through in a few years and would have wasted all the hard work

Don’t let that picture lie to you the wheel is not actually attached to the car its just hanging out there making the car look better

cylinder 1 mics at 3.994 by 3.994 there is no ridge in there and the cross hatch is very nice. the engine is really clean so it looks like we are reringing the thing but its gota go to the shop to be sure but here are some pics.
