Well we made it to the races the 12th,  the Willys had never been out and wouldnt go straight for anything , plenty of horsepower.  Hooley on the other hand even though goofy looking without a front end, (WZ's idea of kool)  ran strong all night and went to the final where he red lighted in the final, so congrats hooley for the great first race... we do it again on may 3d... for those who want to see pics go to my website www.woodardracingandhotrods.com in the forum under tvrp races  or directly to the race track at www.okthunder.com under gasser pics, they have 180 pics of us all ...

The front is on the car now.  I buffed it yesterday and I will polish it today.  If I get everything done early enough, I will roll it out for a picture.   I am anxious to see it run.  I understand Hooley does a pretty good smokin burnout.

All I had to do was sprinkle some salt in his shoes and he was good to go.............

Most people have a higher than average number of legs.

Hooley

Jim, No spins and didn't run out of gas, either. This drag racing is a lot of fun.

Sure looks good!!!!

Hooley, when you get tired of it, you can store it up here in dry Montana, you won't have to worry about rust.  You might have to replace some tires though. :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Thanks for the offer ,Doug. I have too many cars setting outside now and  I need to fix that problem,too.  This is the first I have seen the car outside with the front painted. John it does look good.
