Probable Cause

Well I been reading these forums for a decent amount of time now, after being introduced to them by my brother(Von Hartmann). Finally seems like a good time to write this up. I grew up around muscle cars, namely Chevelles. In recent years we have grown more and more interested in traditional style hot rods as well as gassers.
Im a 21 year old Union Electrician from Byron IL, just south of Rockford, about 2 hours west of Chicago.
I bought my first hot rod, a Ford Model A Coupe in Feb of 2008. It came partially started, but much of the work needed to be rechecked or redone, either do to how it was installed or conflict with my final vision for the car. I plan on finalizing the few loose ends on the car to try and get it on the road for the Hunnert Car Pileup in October. Starting this winter a completely new chassis and drive train are in the works. Not all the pieces have been decided on, this is the main reason I'm finally writing this.
I'm also a member of the Tin Butchers from Northern Illinois, where I have begun the rework of their website (I'm still looking for more pictures of the Scrap Drive, 2007 or 2008). I also manage my brother's website as well, whenever he decides to digitize any of his work.
I'm glad to finally have sat down to write this and maybe Von Hartmann will finally get off my back about it, Haha.
Attached Pictures are of my car as it sat when I got in from Cali, and of the Motor mocked up in its current form.
