65 Tempest
I finally got around to putting my 65 in the air today and pulled the wheels and drums off to assess where the wheel cylinder was blown out. I forgot how much fun drum brakes were as one side came right off, but the other side took a full two hours, can of WD40, torch and 3 lb sledge to get it off. Was completely rusted to the axle flange. Was a great way to get my 14 year son broken into working on old cars. Here are a few photos of it in the garage.

My 65 Tempest convertible. Originally a column shift automatic inline six, now has a 72 455, 66 tripower, M20 and 3.36 12 bolt... I hope to get it in the body shop for paint soon; for the past 10 years I have been collecting NOS side trim, grille, hood ornament, tail light lenses, bezels and a tail panel for it when it is done. It will always be a TEMPEST...

Traction was nonexistent (at least for me). Still a great time at an Old School Show and Go.

That would be nice. Keep me posted, if you need I have an assortment of soft rubber to choose from that you're more than welcome to.

Time
Without any traction it ran 9.24 @ 77 mph. I thought high 8's were within reach but that wasn't going to happen without bite.

Dan your car looks fantastic. The turquoise and bright wheels work well together.
