    I am glad that you do.
    Cars not much but it sure is fun.
    It is fun when people come by the pits and have a look at a real 409. :)
    Some of the comments are priceless.

    Haha! Good eye.

    Yep. Larger projects on the right. Bring them over to the left one by one and break it down into smaller projects. Only way I know to not get overwhelmed.

    Each one teach one. Thanks a lot, I'm enjoying it already and I haven't even drove it this whole planning thing and researching is fun in itself. I'm really nothing without you guys and a handful of other people that have been teaching me everything. I'm going to send you a p.m. later tonight so look out for it in the morning.

    60 LeSabre I picked up last summer. Just mechanical work last year to get it on the road. Fix something...break two others.....fix some more. Garage is full so I’m waiting for spring weather to fix the flintstone holes in the floor, hacked up suspension and exhaust.

    Anyone know why my car and post was removed? I don't see any difference in my hotrodding a 64 Plymouth verses other cars on this thread.

    I don't know but that sucks. I liked your car, post and upbeat attitude. Don't let it get you down. Post it again and lets hope it was a computer glitch.

    Thanks! It's a 1972 360. The first engine I dropped in the truck was a '64 390, but it had a knock in it. Got a good deal on the 360... it's got plenty and power and torque for my cruiser. She's for sale by the way... in the hamb classifieds.

    This thread lands smack-dab in the middle of my wheelhouse. I predict this to become another one of those 'monster' threads. Thanks for starting it D&P!
    Keep 'em comin' boys!

    This is my 1960 Olds 98. I bought it off a friend who did a bit of stuff to it and in turn I did a bit of stuff to it. I more less work on it but make sure I keep the rubber to the road to hit up car shows and have a few beers and jump around to BBQ’s! [​IMG][​IMG]

    I do like a lot of different year cars but I seem to be lost the 60s for some reason. :)
