Talking A few pics, Glacier Girl's new look.

A month ago I posted preview pics of this, now the job is done. Here is the new look for my Glacier Blue Host car. (and a pic of #2 holding the raw materials for dyno tropies, ready to go to the powdercoater..she carried it around for half an hour, would not put it down ????)

It is 31* here in Cleveland, I just started it up to back out and take the pics..So, it is steam, have no fear. The pistons and rods all came from donor 951s. If you look close, most of them have little dents from where the valves met the pistons. Yea, the rods were probably OK, but I needed trophies!

Spend a couple grand on a rebuild and you might be so lucky.
