Finally got my old/computer challenged butt registered so here goes. I live in Oklahoma and i am fortunate enough to be making a living at doing what i like,not love but like. What I love,besides my wife of course,is HOT RODS!! I'm an aircraft mechanic at the local air force base and a licensed A&P so i do side jobs on private aicraft to feed my sickness. Iam currently building a track roadster. It's a 23t bucket with a27 turtel deck. I have a 300hp. 327,350 turbo and 8 inch ford rear end. I'll post some pictures when i can. I also have a Harley clone that i built in my garge right next to the roadster. It's got a shovelhead engine and in true swap meet tradition no two parts have ever been together befor. Back to the rod. Ibuilt my own frame and all the brackets,lost part of a thumb doing it but I loved it just the same,went to VO-tech at night to learn to weld and got certified in stick,mig&tig. Guess i've rambeled long enough.Hope to hear from somebody hell anybody so at least I'll know I did'nt totaly bomb. drsniner/okgeezer47

Welcome from central Oklahoma. Sounds like a neat project.
