I only ever had one video (VHS) of my Dodge at NED. I left it with Ben Therien because he wanted to make a copy and i never saw it again.
If you do get that converted, I'd be interested in having some of the files. I have a copy of Gus' racing ledger for Slug. I don't think i have a complete copy for Mini.

You know I may have a video I converted for Gus, I'll look later today.

Here you go Wayne, a tape I digitized for Gus.

Wow. Talk about ahead of his time. Knocking them out one after the next while driving a 4cyl turbo and video taping the whole time. Nice.
That's a cool video! And is that "Butch" a few posts back with the red Daytona the same Butch that ended up with a red Firebird (or TA?)? Did that Daytona end up getting wrecked? That's basically when I first found these forums (allpar I think) straight out of high school.

Its coming Wayne, its coming.
I'm finishing up on the '71 in the next 2 weeks and then the Dart is on deck, after that we start pulling wrenches on the Reliant.
The '71 we had to pull apart the engine to replace 2 valves, replaced all the valve springs, painted the motor the correct color, redid the front seats and repaired the headliner. Car has been sitting in the garage for over a year and a half. Still have to paint and change out the dash pad and fix a half dozen fairly minor things.
Engine for the Dart is already in the workshop waiting to be assembled.
Working on clearing the decks.
Looks like things are progressing nicely.

Great pics Gary Thanks for keeping them safe all these years The one where there's 5 guys standing, who's the skinny guy on the left with all the hair??
Not only did Slug go three for three that day but Gus tree'd each one of them!
If you ever travel to SoCal again, you and yours have a place to stay and since I have my own place now-I won't even need permission. ThanksGiving Christmas whenever

Huh, i never thought to bolt an engine to the stand sideways like that. Good idea, Younger Alan!
Thanks for posting up these old pics, Gary D. I wish more stuff from the older days was still alive on the internet. There's a lot of enthusiast history with these cars that never made it into the 'digital age'.
Dont push the red button.You hear me?
