Was looking at the thread for the upcoming Englishtown Show and Go and there it was. **^bana0  I had this photo but lost it a real oldie but goodie you wont see anymore.

John I think the rules called for 8" minimum so thats what it would be and yes I did the chop.

Bob thats where my shop was, it was a Riggins Gas Station with 3 bays. till I bought my own place and moved about 1 mile south.

Bob I'm guessing 1100lbs.

I would have to try and find the class specks for a I-Gaser in the late 60s to know for sure.
