I am glad I found this site! Iam in Oklahoma and dont have much of a true Hot Rod scene here. I have been into drag racing all my life. I have a 1962 Chevy 2 that runs 10s but the local tracks have closed and I dont have an endless wallet. I found my self racing with guys that have 30,000.00 in their engines. My 2000.00 sbc got respect but I could never get in the money. I have parked the Chevy 2 for now and started looking for a Tall T. I found one in a guy had sitting in his pasture. My Uncle had a 27 when I was a pup and I always wanted to find one for my self. His car is long gone but I will never forget the fun we had in it.

I found a 26 thats close enough for me. I dont want any chrome! I plan on no paint and no repair to the 3 bullett holes in the left rear! I have a cool cross ram dual carb intake for a sbc that I think will look killer in this car! You never see these intakes you cant get the valve covers off the intake hangs over the covers! I will get some pictures up soon.

Thanks for allowing me to be apart of this site. and I look foward to any tips and advise you all might give me.
