Monday this week me and Sofi started to work on the Chevelle and took the motor apart for inspection and service after the race at Kauhava in Finland! 😃

All looks good in the motor, just a standard control of parts and then we just need some minor valve job and a new valve because one hardened tip was lose, but that is what I call a normal service after 19 rounds on the heads since cutting the seats and that valve must be at least 50-60 rounds old so no biggie! 🥳

Tomorrow it’s just 3 weeks left before we leave the shop and are heading for the EDRS Top Doorslammer round 4 at Sundsvall Raceway!🚦🚙💨💪🏻🤩

Will you be there at Sundsvall Raceway August 26-28?? 😃

Yesterday it was time to unload the Chevelle from the trailer and get it back in the shop after some well needed rest for her after the success at Kauhava in Finland about 4 weeks ago! 🚙💤 And why!? 🤔 Because it’s time to service her and get her ready for Top Doorslammer round 4 at Sundsvall Raceway in about 4 weeks from today! 🚦🚙💨💨💪🏻🤩🥳😎

Will we see each other there at Sundsvall Raceway August 26-28?? 😃

Memories, my old every day car 18 years ago! 😍🤩
Yesterday when on vacation at Sofi’s uncles place I got this first picture from a friend that was on a car show in Malung about 40 minutes from where we are and he asked if it was my old Chevelle 64 that I used to have a long time ago, and yes it is! 😊 I have got pictures from people every now and then when people have seen it ever since I sold it! 😃

And when we where in the car on our way home it passed on a trailer directly in front of us! 😳👀 If we would went home a couple of minutes earlier or later I would have missed it, this was the first time I saw it since the end of 2006 when I sold it! 😅

Then when we went to the gas station it was sitting there on a trailer so I just had to take a picture of it! 🥳 It’s still the same guy that owns it today but he was at home, would have been fun to meet him again! 😊

The third picture is the last one I took on the car when it left with the new owner about 16 years ago and it still looks just like it did when I sold it! 😁 That means it’s about 19 years ago a friend of mine called me and kind of forced me to Åland because he told me I really needed it! 😂🤣 I bought it without a drive line, rebuilt pretty much the whole car except for the paint that I kept like it was, built a 355 Chevy with a 6-71 blower on top of it and used it as a daily driver and raced with it!.. Best ET was 9.37 on the 1/4 mile, really fun car and great memories! 🤩

Sometimes I really do miss it, yesterday I did miss it even more!… Really didn’t wanna sell that car but I needed money to start build the Top Doorslammer Chevelle 65 that I have today! And I now realized that it is about 15 years since I started to build that one, and 17 years since I bought the beginning of what it is today! 😳🙄 Tail lights and number on the license plate! 🤣🤣

Time really flies! 😅

EDRS Top Doorslammer points standing after round 3

EDRS Top Doorslammer points standing after round 3 at Pite Dragway last weekend that we didn’t went to after winning the 2 first event in the series!… 🙄

But we did have a fellow Chevrolet racer that did defend the top position and won the event! 🥳 Kenneth Lingvald and team KLR Motorsports took the win with their conventional headed Chevy Big Block powered Pontiac! 💪🏻🚙💨🥇🏆

I think it’s fun that real standard type Chevrolets are showing that they can be a part of the winning ones and not just Hemis all the time! 😎😜

#howboutthatchevypower

It’s still a long wait but I really look forward to the fourth race in the series at Sundsvall Raceway in the end of August, 6 weeks from today!… 👀

Happy no racing weekend everyone! 😑😬😅 Remember to have a good one anyway! 🥳

Just one more eight mile! 🚦🚙💨🥇🏆
