How About A Happy 53 Thread???

[SebringBill]

Thanks SebringBill. I love the pic of the speedo - very impressive. I don't think I will ever get my 53 over 100mph. And, unfortunately, the speedo on my 57 doesn't work (I just use the tach).

Russ, that pic was taken in CO on the NCRS road tour to Monterey, 2002. the next day I buried the speedo (x3!) on US 50 in NV, but couldn't bring myself to take a hand off the wheel to grab the camera!

I've had a buncha fun with my 57. Road Atlanta:

Atlanta Motor Speedway:

I will admit only to exceeding a normal speed limit in both of the above pictures..:cool

He seemed to forget he finally replaced the speedo gear the next day, I think the old one at 50 it showed he was doing 75. LOL

Are you still in touch with the buddy? Might be worth trying to track down that engine and trans.

Nope. I came back from Viet Nam, he didn't.

Awesome!! You're quite lucky! I tried to get that same tag in Mississippi for the past several years, but whoever has it is holding on to it. ;squint:
