+3 on Detroit Truetrac. Quiet & works great behind ~ 550 HP & 5 speed, w/ no maintenance.

Pic of some of the visiting cars at the private car collection. Pics of the collection even better!
But didn't know if the owner would frown upon that!

My view out on the Friday cruise from my 69 350. 2 66's & George Huisman's 69 GT500

Looking forward to nice weather, nice cars and nice people.
1967 GT350 #23 will be there on display.

Great to meet you, I had the yellow 69 GT350 next to you in the parking lot. Plenty of nice weather, nice cars and nice people!!
Thank you so much to all of those involved to make this happen, it was a great event & great time. Even though the magnetic pickup in my MSD distributor decided to conveniently take a dump Sat am so had to leave car in the parking lot!! 

But an amazing collection of rare Ford vehicles. Met a lot of new people & saw a lot of different cars. And also a great time cruising to Ed and Joey's shops Friday, what an experience.

I started using Bugs-B-Gone made by Seafoam. It really helps loosen up bugs, can use it on paint, chrome, grille, radiator etc. Makes them spray off a lot easier & works fast.
I ordered thru Advance Auto Parts

fwiw, Mike

That's cool stuff, I am considering EFI for the 418w stroker in my 69 350!

That opentracker piece is slick!!

And the fastbacks will have Mach 1 hood pin holes in radiator support

Did all 69 fastback Shelbys have the radiator support holes? I heard it was an early/ late thing but wasn't sure.
not that I'm a concours guy but enjoy learning just the same!!

PM me if you still need this info

No safety worries at all (at hotel or race venues at least)
2 of the ultimate Ford powered cars were in hotel lobby though

And Rex & Tony (the owners) are both great guys to top it off!!

You CA boys are spoiled, LOL... That is definitely not a rust bucket, but it does have a bad paint job.

I was thinking same thing!! Lol

Yep it was probably racked improperly (considering where the engine/weight is), then when the front wheels were removed it flipped off of the arms backwards. Should also probably have used a screw type jack in the rear.  (over 30 years in the lift business, I have seen some crazy stuff out there!)

Suggestion: Go to www.hunter.com, click on contact Hunter & see who local sales & service reps are. They should be able to recommend a local shop with the right equipment & mentality to align classic cars, there is a big difference in shops!!

Only 40% chance of rain. But it found me of course lol
