Richard Park's hot rod 914-6

Richard Park's recent restoration.
Richard got any photos with the new arrow stripe?
This too was just freshly painted at PCA member Mark Tyler's Victory Race Paints (619) 281-6024 in Mission Valley.
Good luck at SOW RP.

As it was Richard and Mark had trouble posting photos and asked if I would do so for them.
Next week (I'll have no excuses when) I post photos of my freshly painted and completed hot rod. :wink:
I still would like to see some spy shots fom the Simone garage, I know he has 2 new cars nearly race ready....

Would running AM be better than running a battery tender for a year?
fyi Christy, Mark and Eric are more interested in AX this year.

I think the new rules moved them out of AM into HM. Unfortunately, it also moved half the AM class with them. John, Mick and TT all have cars that started life as E's so they got moved out of AM too. Ridiculous.

Battery tender? There's clubs at these tracks every single weekend......

The new class is IM, Curt, feeding from I and J class. HM disappeared awhile back, when KM appeared.

Here's happy photo of Victory Race Paint owner/ PCA member Mark Tyler and Hector (one of his painters) yesterday having just finished the final prep on my track car.
The decklid is open and Mark's shop decal is visable on the wing.
The new windshield gets the Mirage banner this weekend.:wink:

I'm using a Tiller to steer my race vehicle this year....

...or until the early 911 (pre-'74) car classification system get straightened out sensibly :( :roll:

Curt used the right word to describe it.......... :idea:

It looks like from looking at pictures of your cars that a decent paint job was done, but for the record, I was not happy with the job that was done on my car's interior.
