Man, I always loved those T Types, even more than the GN's for their stealthy flavor.

I'm having some trouble with the math though; how are you old enough to have a grandson when you were in high school after 1987???

You are confusing Jake #9 with Jake #8! (There were 10 Jakes). Jake # 10 is the grand son. Jake #8 is 74 years old, Jake #9 is 46, Jake #10 is 16. Clear huh?

This was a &quot;Kick ass&quot; car on the street! It looked like a grandma's car until you got it up on boost! Surprised many a Mustang/Camaro with this car. Drove it hard every day for 10 years! Our two sons took care of the night time duties!

Those tires look great!!!! If you have any problems, contact me. I will have to say, I can do nothing about reduced rubber levels on the rear tires!!!! Keep me informed on the way everything works for you!!!

I would like to extend a personal invitation to &quot;Jake #10&quot; to join us in our Modern Muscle area for the MCACN show this year.

https://secure.jotform.com/form/50863715637967

Some of you may remember that Jake #10 participated in the show previously with his Schwinn Stingray, so it is only fitting that he carry on the Dykstra tradition with his T-type!

Thanks for the personal offer Bob! I must say that MCACN is one of the reasons #10 has taken a greater interest in our hobby. He has been to several of the shows and looks forward to it every year.

This is quite the honor for a 16 year old gear head. He knows the procedure, having been a participant with his Schwinn, and his fathers Chevelle, and his Grandfathers '62 Impala 409/409! The Dykstra tradition continues!
