Unlike some of you, I'm not a big fan of RED........... but I gotta make an exception here. This thing is NICE!

I am big fan of <font color="red"> RED </font>. Especially on Rockets

Man, I tell you. BC has one of the best concentration of cool Rocket Power between Gene, Paul and my Uncle. If I'm not mistaken, Gene used to own Casey's F-85 W-31 too.

I had a chance to go for a ride in this car not long after Gene bought it. Had my son along that day and he got a huge thrill out of seeing Gene put his full body weight into the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. There was a lot of tire smoking and squirming as the 775-14 tires TRIED to get some traction. With 4:33 gears not much chance!! Not hard to tell this was a 12 second car out of the box.

That is one neat car, and I love the cold air ducting too, what a beast!

Sorry, I am still having a disconnect with my brain! That thing just looks evil to me! Makes you wish for a time machine and a wad of cash! Beautiful car and the W-31 doesn't look bad either! If Charlie doesn't get it.... Putting another Olds on the board!
