I know that Jim Travis has a Pantera but don't recall him ever taking it to the salt. I'm afraid I'm being a bit blonde today so can somebody remind me how to add a pic to a post. I know you click on Additional options and then browse to find the pic you want to add -but then what??

Cheers

Robin

I believe the 303 Stude is Tom Finn.

The 219 Stude is Bruce Geisler.

Stainless - Any idea if the pic of the 219 Stude was taken the year (1980) it set the D/CBGC record at 209 and change?  That's the
one we're going to chase, so it's got some sentimental value.

Nice sidecar photo, Stainless -- even the pit bike (background, on the left) is a hack.  Bob Bakker will be happy that you put up such a photo.  So am I.  Thanks.

The #700 Corvette is Jerry Jones and Bob Beaty. Rich is right #303 is Tom Finn it was # 300 Logan and Dincau before that.

Snap, probably, but anyone that knows when the 411 went 258.527, I think they were taken the same year since the camera format is the same.  
Here is one from an earlier year, when it ran A/G, that would be during the time period that blown was 2 classes up.  The other one has 2 more window stickers so I would guess this one is 78 or 79 and the other is 80.

And another Tom Finn project, before or after?

Stainless,
     It's after. He took the quick change out of the Stude to build the Vega.

You mean Sum, or Stainless, right?  I don't have much in the way of old photos -- must be a misspelling of names, that's it, right?

Wind chill temperatures forecast for -10 tonight, down to -35by Thursday night.

Since I couldn't do a rodster (same as a roadster), how about 2 pictures of a half a rodster....  Nice V8 on 2 wheels...


And a few more,
the Triumph used to be legal....  and there is a roadster in the background :cheers:

For some reason the Finn and Son Vega didn't hang around for long before being replaced with a Monza. I have some pictures of the Boss 302 powered motorcycle. He told me that he went 160 I think and had to lay down (tuck) on the tank which sucked his jacket into the carburator and shut it off. Rode the thing out there I think.
