New Guy Checking In
Hello folks,
Just found this forum last night. Always looking for alternatives to HAMB and the Hotrodders Bulletin Board.
I've been a car guy all my life, mostly owning & wrenching on 50s/60s/70s stuff.
Got my first fat-fendered hot rod (street rod?) a year ago - 1947 Plymouth Special Deluxe Club Coupe, kind of an old school build (previous owner had it for 20 years).
Nova front suspension, GM 10-bolt rear, 1986 Corvette TPI 350 engine with Turbo 350.
I didn't know anything about pre-1955 stuff before this one, it's been a blast so far.
The older I get the more I realize I enjoy wrenching on and researching about this car almost as much as I enjoy driving it. It's all about the journey!

The engine looks awesome, I like the low intake. That'll be some eye candy when the hood is popped.
