Flathead Ford with 3 '97's

My '29 AV8 hotrod with 8BA engine, Schneider 260 cam, Lincoln valve springs, Offy heads, 9:1 compression. Carbs on progressive linkage.

Car has a '32 Ford chassis, '40 Lincoln Zephyr trans with overdrive, '37 differential, closed driveline, 4" dropped Bell axle, '40 Ford steering column with column shift, '40 brakes, '40 wheels. Smitty mufflers. Rumble seat roadster body is original Ford.

No fiberglass, no street rod parts. This is the real deal.

We ran the AV8 on the 2005 Great Race Texas (shown)and the 2006 Great Race from Philadelphia, PA to San Rafael, CA. Total 3500 miles, rain and heat. We finished 7th out of 100 entries. We also ran the 2007 Hemmings National in Branson, where we also finished 7th. Between the two races we won over $8,000.00. We won't be running the 2008 race but may take it to the VCRA race in Texas in April.
