Very nice article. It's great to see a father and son doing something together and having fun. Brings back good childhood memories for me.

Congratulations on the car and the article.
The best part is you are sharing it and the experiences with your son.
As a father and a car owner I understand exactly how you feel.
Now go have more fun.

Very nice Ron, it's good to see your car and stock eliminator getting some ink. Well done!

Great story,Ron! I can just hear your enthusiasm as I read this. The tale about the trip back to pick it up through all that adventurous weather was fun. I remember in late 1991 when you got the Chevelle in Milwaukee, Oregon and used my El Camino and trailer to go get it. I'm amazed that car made the trip. God must have delivered you, because that was the next week the truck broke the crankshaft on my way to work.Got you home safely,however!! I guess the more some things change, the more they seem the same. Great story, I wish you and Andy well. God bless, keep the good ink coming!!('>')

Great article and nothing better than to be able to share it all with a child.
