Hi Gang: Just wanted to take a few minutes to introduce myself. My name is Ken Thibodeaux and I live in Baton Rouge. La. I went to my 1st. Drag Race as a 9th. grader (1960). In 1962 I started working as the Flagman at the Biloxi (Mississippi) Drag Strip. Bought & raced my first car in 1975 (B/ED FED). Continued to race a varity of dragsters until my last car, a blown/injected RED Top Dragster until I stopped racing in 2011. In Dec. 2014 I "Got the Bug" to go back racing a FED and purchased a 185" Boogie Scott car. Long story short, rather than putting an engine in it and going racing, I decided to have Boogie build me a new, full body. He said it should take 4-6 weeks. A few updates to the chassis and 10 months later I picked the car up. (Craftsmanship takes time, lol) and he is a Craftsman. I have everything to put it back together once I get the chassis back from powdercoating. Hoping early next week. Will be running an injected SBC w/ powerglide. (Wanted something unique,lol) Will try to post pics of progress if I can figure out how. Hope to be up and running in 3-6 weeks. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!! Ken
