Scott's '65 is one nice ride. I have
seen this automobile in the flesh, so to speak, some years ago at Beaver and the
Pottsville Cruise the Sunday immediately after.
The night at Beaver, we both went out of eliminations the same round, as I recall,
in the final 8. I thought we were going to have to face each other and was not looking
forward to getting my 13 second ass whooped by this one. If I remember correctly,
he was also in the Top Street at Beaver that night. This car runs mid tens on the
motor alone!
It is powered by a 410 ci small block ford with a Lenco 4 speed to put the power
to the rear. That's all the info I have to date.
The car was painted at Frank Tankalavage's shop in Williamstown and is detailed in
every way. F&W Body shop also installed the roll bars. This machine is clean
inside, outside, and underneath. This is a prime example of a car that is fast, clean,
and very driveable to cruise as well. Hope to see more of it soon. |

Doesn't this look like it should be on a calendar? Nice photo!
(The high resolution shot is amazing.)
