I'm another one of those "old timers" wanting to get back to the "happy days" by going street rodding. So,of course,I need a car that says "Hot Rod" Like I remember from the 50's. I found one that fit the style about a year and a half ago,and have been doin' the three R's...Repair...Rebuild...Restore....and make some improvments. The only trouble is....the last time I worked as a mechanic was 40 yrs ago for Uncle Sam. I've been a Mill Rat(factory worker to you young'uns)since then.Although I have built a few Harley choppers.(Haven't we all?) Anyhow......My car is a '27 ford T...2 door sedan...chopped 6"....channeled 4"...and shortened 10". The engine is the chevy 350,(which is all over my gagage floor right now) Trans is a Rossler 350. The car was originally built by Buddy Fares of Youngstown Oh. I was able to make enough repairs to be able to drive it for a summer, but I'll be in the garage till spring working on it again.
