Life and other minor responsibilities keep getting in the way.  The Merk won't be ready for Speedweek.

So my pre-entry is for sale.   :cry:  MikesHotRodRepair@msn.com

Hey Mike, are you attending SpeedWeek... without the car or skipping to get it ready for Sept or Oct?  Don't want to put too many miles on the book...  :-D

I'm crushed - this is one of the cars I REALLY wanted to take a good look at.

Thanks Mike, I'll get that donation on to SCTA. 

Sorry to hear about not getting the car done in time, but keep plugging away.  I've been doing that myself for a long time  :cry:, and you've done a better job moving along than I have  :cheers: :cheers:,

Wow - it's already set up for a 302 - the Midget on the trailer only weighs 2300 lbs - I'm thinking TOW VEHICLE!

WOW.....SORRY to see this Mike. I KNOW you have been through a lot getting the car to this point.
Sounds like you made the best decision about waiting if you are not ready.
I'm getting the itch to do another MAJOR road trip and I think the WoS and the Shootout are on the horizon for me!  :-D
If you make it to the WoS, there's a pretty good chance I'll see you there!

I could get to Bonneville via Chico.  I have a good trailer.   8-)

Thanks, Gregg.  WoS or WF are definitely NOT off the table.  We'll see.
