Saw some familiar names, and thought I would check this forum out.
I don't consider myself a true hotrodder yet, but I am working on it. I do all the work on my car myself, I take all the advice I can get. Nobodys pinchers have been on my car but mine. This is my first complete rebuild. Its a daggone hoot.
I'm not too computer savy, so my wife will have to post the pictures for me:o
welcome geezer and tj.
Hey Geezer, glad you made it over! You should have a good time here, lots of great folks.
Welcome to the forum. For someone who doesn't consider themselves a hot rodder yet it sure looks like you got through that chop ok. :D Have the Mrs. put up some pictures, we would love to see them.
