Re: Cast iron A-466 to A-727 conversion Forward Look 56 to 61

Re: Hot August Nights 2021
Yes, HOT but low humidity. You will see everything, you can imagine. Too many tri five chebies. We stayed in Falon 50 miles away and later have been staying in Sparks with a group of street rod clubs. Cruised Lake Tahoe, Virginia City, Carson City, Donner Pass and several mining towns.
