There's a Mecum next weekend from Florida. Time to set up the DVR!
I agree with you Ken on the Max Wedge car, it was sweet!

those auctions are much more "realistic"...and they have a guy...Steve Stone ???, who's fairly good at describing the cars we love...they do have another guy that's pretty much a "stiff" though, forget his name now, he's done tons of crappy drag racing shows thru the years...no matter who they have... I still wanna throw a brick thru the TV once or twice watching those shows...lol.
