...boy, you gotta love the way the Ketchums make it look so easy!! And those dorks running spray ('cause they're too stupid to make 'em run otherwise) will just figure they need MORE spray to catch 'em... Just curious, what are the Ketchum's background?

Jack's Father used to work at a AMC dealership I think (I will ask and edit). Bill has been racing AMC's since he started driving. Bill works at GM as a Tech. I saw a picture of his green Spirit on his tool box when I was working with our friend Brad at Milford. I found out who's tool box that was and have been hanging with those guys ever since. Landis has that car now and I guess that you can blame both me and Bill for getting Brad in to it.. I tell people that Bill's Hornet is a show car that goes really, really fast. The car is gorgeous. Jack's car sports it's original paint. Iron block 401, Indy heads, no spray, Glide trans. Bill was driving the car when it got exceptional traction....

Boy, you're right that Hornet is pretty... can't say that I'm too fond of the scoop... but heck, even the hood-pins are a work of art!

That's a sweet car. It would probably be even quicker if he shitcanned that Indy intake!

Seems kinda silly to spend all that $$$, and not buy a set of wheelie bars.

Wow. This evening I was drilling a hole in the side of a freezer that I was converting into a kegerator, and nicked one of the evaporator coils, thus ruining it. I was beside myself pissed off. Out a whole $40 and just pissed. I can't imagine doing that kind of damage to an awesome car and then not taking some kind of steps to keep from doing it again.
