    Stopped by the shop today.........

    Buddy has a Kurt McCormick car on the rack.
    It had been sitting for many years and they're bringing it back to life.

    1929 Ford, all steel, on a '31 frame.
    392 hemi, blower w/2 Weber Carbs.....727 tranny.

    Had the old Hilborn injector (shown) on it.

    Neat old ride.

    Here's some of Kurt's other rides.......several Barris cars.

          Maybe something with the 392 hemi but I'm not into the body style.
          Besides........would mess both my hairs up driving

                  That's pretty!

                  Tell your buddy I know of a well developed EFI injector setup for that engine, if he's interested. LOL

                              I have quite few hairs left (not as many as in the Olden Days, but quite a few) and I'd chance it. Great looking car and I'll wager it runs hard once rejuvenated.

                                          slobber... drool... this is the sort of thing that gets me in trouble with the missus - I'd put that on the fireplace mantle.

                                                  sure looks like that car is really close to already being there. Put the 36 on the lift and found the 1x3 tubing was not welded completely to the body yet so the body wont come off of the frame and survive yet. Got alot more bracing to do.
