Default A-V8's in the dirt...

This video was shot yesterday at the Latimore Valley Fair

I figured this was more fitting in the V8 section...if not.... sorry

My car is a 28 body on a '32 frame with a '53 Merc Flathead.
The other roadster is a 29 body on an A frame with a '39 221

All old parts on both of them...

I think this is the most fun either of us have EVER had in these cars!

Hope you enjoy
Zach

The cars look great. Loving the wide 5's. I can see a set of those in my future. (Have a pair already, just need a couple more.)
