Hi! I've been lurking for years and have always found the hamb guys I meet at the shows and drags are good people. A slow computer and a lack of typing skills have kept me from joining for some time. Well, now with a new pc and few hours to type, hopefully this intro goes o.k. I drive a 65 Cyclone as a daily driver and race/cruise a 57 Ford Custom street gasser. I put the Ford together 10 years ago and have been running it hard since. It has a 383, TH350, 4:11 posi, econoline axle, 65 T-bird interior, whitewall slicks, and lots of hard miles on it. I've had and built a lot of other old cars but I love 57's. That's why I still have this one. I'm finishing a 57 Ranch Wagon right now to drive daily so I can sell the Cyclone. I'm an artist, pinstriper tiki carver and custom painter. I'm also a member of the Choppers Hot Rod Association of Cleveland, Ohio. They have been active and meeting every thursday since 1956. Some of the members have been in since the 50's and 60's so I've been very lucky to have all that experience to turn to when I've needed help. I'm looking foreward to talking to you, I hope this intro is alright. Later!
