    Arlie, you're talking about "Carroll" being mis-spelled? Yes, Donna pointed that out to me early on (thankfully;-) I know what "Guyman" is going through, so can't wait to see what he comes up with. Nowadays, I use the Hanes Beefy-Ts on our air show shirts for best quality and reasonable...

    ...Oh, by the way... I'm far from the only one who photographs you. At the recent Reno Air Race Association press conference I attended, you were picked up by Associated Press and showcased worldwide in the act of being "You" following the events of last September. Awesome! :-)

    1968 curious- stock or modified

    Neil, I have two S-codes and the spark plugs are no problem at all! 'Little tighter, but not bad. Niether has AC though, so that may be the kicker. Ironicly, my '69 big block has a lot less access than the '68...
