new guy wanting to learn
Hey my name is Quincy i've been helping my grandpa rebuild motors for years. I'm looking into building a 65 Shelby Cobra replica and i was looking for a 427 when my grandpa said he had a 428 i could have so i jumped on it (nothing beats free). Im a welder for my day job and mechanic work is just something i like doing for a hobbie. So im planning on tearing into the 428 this weekend and get started on my dream car so i joined CHR for some helpful information and see what other people have done to their hot rods and maybe get some other tips and tricks from other people.
