    You never know what you might find....Part II

    on the dyno at T*am F*rd...1023RWHP T-Bird built by Steve Petty. I've got video of the runs, as well...but don't know how to upload those. Maybe Marty will host those and I/he can link them. This thing redefined "Beast"....but, of course only had 2 doors. More pics in the Gallery....

    Is he going to be a regular at Huntsville? I'll be there soon, maybe get a chance to see him in action.

    Adjusted air in and air out.
    400+ timeslips.

    When in doubt, GAS IT! This will either fix the problem, or end the suspense.

    That falls under the catagory of "Holy Crap!!!!"
    SOLD '03 300A Black - "805" of 7838
    Plate - "EVILMERC"

    I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.

    Gillom Rogers: [Books is giving Gillom a shooting lesson] Mr. Books, How is it you've killed so many men? My spread wasn't much bigger than yours.
    John Bernard Books: First of all,friend, there's no one up there shooting back at you. Second, I found most men aren't willing, they bat an eye, or draw a breath before they shoot. I won't.

    I believe he runs the Outlaw series. They had an earlier event cancelled by hurricane Ivan and the make-up is this weekend, a 20,000.00 purse.

    They should see what the top speed would be on the Bonneville salt flats.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:
    Alex "Marauderboi" Vachon 3/2/92-8/13/10
    Paula Babineau 1/9/67-8/2/11

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    I suppose operating the camera is more important than putting out the fire!

    In terms of troubleshooting the "cause and origin" of the failure, yes, it is.
