Well better late than never so heres my intro: I'm a retired truck driver with no tatoos I've been a car nut most all of my life; never had the chance to have any kind of running hot rod untill now but was an avid reader of HRM, R & C and other mags since the early 60s. (still have them too) I have a 47 Ford 2dr i've been working on. It had been sitting for many years before I got it so i'm still bringing it back from the grave. It now runs, sorta smokey I might add, but it does run. I have added headers and a couple "94"s and converted the dist. to a pancake type. I didn't have a radiator so I bought an aluminum one and installed it.Having had to relocate the generator I did a 12V converson and installed an alternator. Still needs glass, body work, wiring and an interior. I havn't checked the condition of the drive train yet so i'm prepared for surprises there. Bob
