That Ferrari is awesome!
Not to detract from the rest of the bodies! Holy carp!
Congrats, Nesta!

I'm racing the best here at BP but Father time is much better then all of us united.
Not a snob in this hobby, after all it will be gone, if we keep on going like we do, and I have nothing to prove so I keep on posting because I have nothing to gain.
It's our duty to remember the past so we can have a future.

Brian likes it because he has a replica of the original one I did. I didn't think of the bowling ball efect on that marble one but yup... now that I look at it, it looks like that old Columbia 300 I had.

Thanks, John.

Thanks, man, I sure will look you up, when I travel East, my friend.
Noose is too good.

Doing some messing around to run at Dom's and with some of the Vintage guys. Jack Beers gave me those velocity stacks in Columbus and said he didn't have a use for them because they were so heavy. Well... I found a home for them. Thanks, Jack!

In today's dollars it's equal to what I charge now. I figured it out.

I've checked that calculator before, and it's low. The actual increase for comparable products is more like 10-12 times.
For example, the paper I delivered cost a nickel then, and now costs 50 cents. A house which sold for $16,000 now sells (same house) for $200,000 - examples go on and on.

White Castle burgers 10 cents then, now almost one dollar. The end result remains the same = GAS.

Yeah, but you didn't read the add-on stuff. Lettering, detailing, etc., then was extra so when you add it all up... ta ding. Just about equal.I still think you and Jairus are bargains for the level of workmanship.

Jeeze, what white castle are you going to? Plain white castle hamburger down here in Monmouth county NJ is like 46 or 53 cents, cheeseburger 5 or 10 cents more.
When you start getting creative with your order, that's when it gets expensive - fries, onion rings, etc.
Order 5 cheese burgers and bring your own bottled water. Lunch for under $3.00
Plus it is the healthiest burger on the market today.

We have White Castle bugers in the freezer section out here. Not the same.
As for a healthy cheeseburger, can we say oxymoron boys and girls?
The silver 612 is really classy Noose!

Mike,
I'll let you do your own research, but I bet my bottom dollar you will not find a healthier burger from any of the big chains (except for the McLean Deluxe that was discontinued ages ago).
