It was a bittersweet day yesterday as the car went to it's new owner. We accomplished more than I ever thought we could. If anyone would have told me in 2014 that we would eventually put the car in the 10's on the 12.00 index, I would have laughed at them. Lots of great people over the last years have helped...some more than they realize.

-Kevin Nyhus: A great brother that really loves racing.
-Steve Koppien: You opened your shop and gave me the benefit of your experiences.
-Matt Steen & Jason Verke @ Victory Engines: Killer good engine work and advice.
-Bob Sherwood: You were generous with your dyno and your time.
-Gene Bichlmier: Helping find the "crumbs" we know are there.
-John McLeod: Thanks for your positive energy.
-Jim Marshall: Your long distance advice means a lot.
-Ron Roddel: Paying it forward..helping me in so many ways. Rest in peace, my friend.

Thanks to everyone for everything! -Al

Al thanks for letting us be included along in your journey I have enjoyed it. Hope this doesn’t mean an end for you but just an opportunity for another adventure.

Jim, you guys provided a good working, solid car that had some cool history and people involved....Danny Byrd, Jeff Steahly and you. Plus, it was white ! How could I have gone wrong??!!

Not sure what the future holds....we'll see what opportunities life puts in front of me. There's one Stocker project out there that just needs me to rescue it. But it's mired down and slowly circling the drain, unfortunately. And I'm toying with a couple ideas for combos that are totally off-the-wall.

Thanks for everything, Jim. -Al

Al,
Can you say who bought your car? I’ve always admired the way you check out every detail looking for more power. I’m sure whatever project you decide will see a lot of improvement.

Alan it was very educational to watch your build come to fruition, great content followed it from the beginning. Keep us informed on your next project and bring us the great content you did before!

I sold my bracket Nova (74) that had been a racecar since 1975. Even have the 1974 license plate on first register. Had a box of receipts documenting the build from day 1. Even though the car is not far away I did go over and see it the other day..LOL
