New kid on the block
Hi all.. My name is John G and I would like to correspond with a rod & custom club member from St.Louis, Missuri and also another from Anaheim, because I am coming to the USA early March 2009 and going direct to St.Louis and will be in Anaheim about mid May 2009. I am an old fart (63) and have had an interest in rods and customs since I was a teenager. I built a Model A roadster pick up, but that has been sold now. My son and his wife have bought a paint and panel shop and they are now doing a lot of custom work of various tipes and their business car is a fully restored 62 Chev 4 door, I will post some photo's as soon as I get the photos from my son. Anyway... if there is anyone out there that would like to correspond with an oldie from Australia the land down under, I would realy appreciate it very much. Hope to hear from someone soon, stay safe. Regards, John G.

Thank you ford2custom for the welcome and also welcome to brian41chevy and I hope to chat with you all again soon. Stay safe, John G.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
