    Not exactly technical, but I can't resist

    We're getting close, but I make no predictions...

    Nice tag. Color is sharp also, and the pipes ought to sound nice.

      Congrats on getting the tag! A very surprising number of knowledgeable people (including one PhD Materials guy) don't get it. His excuse was that all the letters are capitals.

        A long ways from PhD here; maybe that is why the all caps didn't bother me.

        I want to see the rest of the car. As you can see from my signature, you have my favorite color.

          Mass no longer features 'dots' in plates. A suitably placed dot might help... Photo circa 1977. Brothers in arms, so to speak.

            As large as those letters are there is no room for a dot anyway. More car similarities than I first saw. Best of luck. If you need help I am always up for solid lifter engines; small blocks especially.

                I am all electronic now -- It is the modern age. I don't even have a printer installed. I have to keep my job (50 years) to have access to a printer.

                  OK - at the risk of being made fun of, I don't get it. I even Goggled PBFOOT and still can't figure out what it means - let me in on the secret.

                  BTW - I'm not a PhD.

                    Pb is the chemical symbol for Lead

                      I have a Ph.D. and I don't get it. Maybe we spent too long in school. So, what does it mean?

                        Kent, you're not the only one - I didn't get it either, wasn't even close.

                          It's very disturbing that some can't figure out such a simple plate. 7th grade chemistry would help in the solution.
                          BTW, my wife figured out in 2 seconds.

                            I assume PB is mean to represents the chemical symbol for lead, so Lead Foot is the meaning. Cute.

                              Guess I should have paid more attention in Chemistry class instead of wrenching on hot rods?
