[QUOTE="Keith Tedford, post: 44694, member: 1228"] Friends run on the ONDR nostalgia race circuit. Spanky Goodin has the red wheel standing Thames and it is a street car. Roger Tapson has the Falcon wagon with the vertical blue and white stripes. [url=http://www.fastpast.ca/photopage.html]Photo Page[/url] There are several others around the Peterborough area having a blast with these cars, like the white Willys sedan delivery with the yellow/orange flames and the purple Studebaker. I was at an ONDR meet at Shannonville a few years ago and it was great watching the old stuff run. Some are pretty quick too. It is hard to compare the new to the old. Our COPO Chevelle, from the factory, had severely retarded timing and a lean carb to meet the emissions standards of the day. Getting the jetting and timing right and adding headers turned dogs into beasts but most guys weren't aware of it and lived with what they had. The timing light, carb gaskets and distributor parts were my best friends back then. I guess you guys do basically the same thing except through the computer. If you are around the shop Saturday, perhaps we can chat. :driving: [/QUOTE]
