Bonneville Or Bust!
I have been trying to get out to Bonneville for some time now and never could quite find the motivation needed to make it happen. This year I was lucky enough to score a filming job with a team and finally have a paid way to the salt. I've been hearing stories of comraderie and great times for years now from fellow ACE Gerry and now I am finally here to experience it. Been having a great time out here with Gerry and all of the people involved.
Check back for updates and pics.

We'll be sure to update with more pictures and details as they come.

PROGRESS REPORT: Bob's Ford Pick Up
It's been a while since we've had an update on Bob's pick up build and by the looks of it's current status, Bob has been hard at work . With fellow ACES member Randy's help, there has been some real headway made on this truck. Scheduled completion is forecast in the next two weeks so expect to see this one puling up at your local cruise night soon.

Mid Week Garage Day
I had a great day in the garage today with fellow ACES member Gerry working out some new ideas for the brake system on the 27 T. With a bitchen Wilwood dual master cylinder set up hidden under the cowl, there can be problems only creative solutions can cure. Thankfully Rob Juniper (another ACE) came up with the idea to run the hard lines through the cowl and down to the bottom of the body to mate up with the front and rear system, which was something I have never seen and sounded cool too so I signed off on that idea immediately. Way to go Roberto.
I gotta give Gerry credit when it comes to his brake line bending skills too. We made a ton of progress today and I can't wait to get back out there tomorrow and push even further forward.
