2556.jpg2558.jpg2560.jpgOk here's my 1964cs 409, 425 h.p. Bought it new in 64, a 4sp car 3:70 gears. These pictures from 1966, the 3 people in the picture are myself, Val Wilson and friend Alf Strudwick at my Parents cottage. We where putting on the carb stacks that my Dad made from two 50 Pontiac dash speaker grills. I owned the car till 1967 when I replaced it with a 67 big Beaumount. It was a great car I changed the valve train to Crowler with bigger lift. Lots of fun and a fast car.

My Heap. Yes it's all fake! I like to see how high I can rev the 09 and then dump the clutch. I haven't shattered the trans yet. Parts breakage is just a couple of months away. The poor posi , poor poor posi.

1961 Pontiac "bubble-top" Was Sb/glide, I bought it with a 348/4sp. Swapped out the 3418 for a nice little 409/425 with some nice work:

This was actually a motor that was in "Spirit of '61" racecar of Jim's. It happened to run 10.30's in Jims car. Mine is a bit slower

Murray, forgive me if I'm forgetting but I don't recall that your car has even been feature car here. If it hasn't, could it be featured?

I guess I could post a pic of a "re-creation" of an L36 Strato Chief. I'll try to dig up something a bit later. Right now it's time for the exercise bike, at least so says my doctor and my wife!

I had you in mind when I posted the last comment. Look forward to having your Strato Chief added. 

If there are two people in the world you should listen to it would be your Doctor and your Wife !

I know, but it's easy for them to say, they're not the ones who have to pedal their butt off for 35 minutes and work up sweat every night!
