I added a few shots of my bud Chucks beautiful 69 Camaro drag car to my photo album. He built this car from the ground up. Full tube chassis, big block, turbo 400, 4-link rear end. After he finished the paint job, it spent some time in my garage as I completed the wiring.

WOOOOHOOOO!!!
Just sandblasted through enough paint to find out I have the same MontyWard/Gilson model (my serial number is 10 after yours)!
That looks great.
What size wheels/tires are those?

That bike is great. I can see that you are a skilled fabricator. What is with the RS SS in the background. Looks like a 1320 car to me

Not sure which Cubic Inch motor I have... How would I tell?

The power is alright, I am really pushing the limit on how much power the TAV will handle... One of the larger Comet torque converters would probably perform better on a 10 HP.

The bike performs fine in the dirt and on hills. Handling on sand is bad, probably due to how much weight is on the front end of the machine with the motor so far forward in the frame.
