Greetings. I found this forum through a link on another forum and was instantly hooked. Tons of good info, photos and characters!
I've had my main ride, a 68 AMX for over 25 years. It's a 390, 4-speed car with all the factory goodies. Nice car, but no trailer queen. This car is a driver that gets a few hundred miles from home from time to time. If there are any AMC nuts out there, I'll post some pix.
My new project is a 61 Ranchero. It's a real heap right now, but I'll go completely through it and have a pretty good plan for bringing it back from the dead. I'll do all the mechanical, body/paint, and other work in my garage, except a few items like machine work. It's the only way I can afford it, but it's also how I like to do things. When it's finished, I can say it's really mine.
The tech articles and info on this site will be a big help on this project.
