For those who don't frequent the "Boost" section, here's a picture of my '63 doing a burnout at our local track last Friday night. I made my first two passes with the new blower set-up, but my tuneup still has a long ways to go. The eventual goal is to get the car into the sevens.

I was driving past where they are tearing down the old Parodi factory in Scranton. They uncovered a vintage name on the building underneath the facade. I couldn't resist snapping a pic.

Here are some pictures of the tempest I got.
It's a 61 4-door 4 cyl 3 speed with air.
And only 67000 miles.

That's one of the coolest cars I've seen and a good reason I
did my 62-tempest rather then the 63 that I had.
Looks like he's running a 9-inch slick too.
That's what I run on mine and I had to stretch the wheel
well 2 inch's just to get a 9-inch tire in there. Dam cool car.

GT.

I'm working on my 2nd Lemans convertible, almost have it ready for the paint shop. Car has factory A/C but I believe it was installed at the dealer by the looks of it. Same with the P/S unit, the holes drilled were pretty rough! It's a labor of LOVE these cars.
