Cool FX in a "little" way

Sorree, my "F-85 Hot-line" is too "compact" for the Big Olds Boys! Seriously though, ?'s the compacts? Went to West Coast Olds meet in "YourBlenda", Ca. couple years back, not One little wonder. Kinda sad cause properly prepared, I think they can "bring-it". One of my F-85's is scheduled to be a "Nostalgia Drag" car. Hilborn injected, alum. Olds, Straight axel ,etc. "Let the fun begin", Art.
