Well, yesterday, Mr. and Mrs. Big Zappy (hope they re-join the new Mater, but that's up to them) went with us to Southern Michigan to a friends house and his 15th annual Hot Rod Hot Dog Happenin. It's an "invite only " gig and yesterday was the best ever. The hit of the show was an appearance by none other than Mr. Al Bergler, and his beautiful re-creation of the "More Aggravation" comp coupe digger from the 1960s. Not many people knew in advance that a one-man "cacklefest" was planned, on 70% Nitro! Al graciously invited our host to take the place of honor in the seat while the awesome digger cackled for nearly 5 minutes! All this was done in a fairly populated area, known for it's peaceful lakes, and beautiful golf courses! I wonder what the neighbors and the golfers thought! Oh, and yes, I DID power-park the Merc next to the dragster. Zappy and I arrived early to offer assistance in unloading it from the trailer, and I just thought that was a great spot for the Merc too! I ain't stupid!

Great pictures, it looks like it was great. Would love to find that blue chevy 2 for sale. Would like to get one again, for the street. Good to see the old digger out making noise.
