Cannonbird Run to Fredricksburg Tx

Met my dad and the rest of the H.A.L.F group in Fredricksburg Tx for 2011 CannonBird Run. Had alot of fun and the car ran great. I added a reproduction lower baffle to get better air flow to keep the car running a little cooler. Ran aroun 205 - 210 F on the highway.

May 7 - Took the car to Aeros and Autos at Ellington Field in Houston. But I made sure to Polish the wheels because they needed it badly.









Later that night Nat took the car out -

Our H.A.L.F group was included in this years show at Ellington field. The surprise was when we got to display our birds next to the Thunderbirds.

New engine dressing

Collected some OEM style Valve covers and a new Air cleaner. Threw on a 400-4 sticker and now it starting to look real clean in the engine bay. - Still need to replace the brake booster.
