I grew up with cars, Dad had a service station in Monroe MI. Spent 10 years in the Air Force (off & on) as an Avionics Technician. Finally settled into a career as an Auto Instructor @ Kirtland Community College in Roscommon MI for 24 Years.
Built my first Street Rod in the early 80s, a 36 Chev Sedan 400sb / thm 400 powered. I finished (well almost) my current ride in 1988 and took it drag racing that summer at the NDRA's Milan Dragway event. It's a 30 Model A Coupe, 454 / thm 400 (w/switch pitch converter). We've been to the NSRA events, lots of runs over the years... hard to believe it's been over 20 yrs!
Now retired, looking at that old Model A sedan body in my shop, thinking about the 327 I built in high school that sits on the engine stand next to it, and a Muncie on the shelf..... Hmmm...
Update: Son Dan decided he wanted to build the c-dan, so with a Pete & Jakes ‘32 chassis and a freshened 327 we’re buildin’...
