Somebody should take me out and kick my ass for all the great cars i ruined in my youth. One in particular was a really nice 5 window 32 coup. Thought I get a little more HP out of the 283 by not running a air cleaner. It had too much cam and carb and backfired though the carb catching fire. I tried to shut it down but the electric fuel pump just kept running, burnt to the ground. Dumb ass. wish I had it today. BTY broke my heart when they canceled Hot August Nights here in Reno due too the Coronavirus. Lots of stunning cars at the event but most are pro built costing $100,000 or more. Not like the old days!
