    Hi y’all. Not new, but back after an 8 or so year hiatus... couldn’t remember all my old credentials and decided to have a fresh start.. things sure look different around here. Got heavy in to bikes for a bit and after pawning my old 55 chev off to get in to the vintage harley game, I’m starting to get the love back for hot rodding.

    I have a ‘29 Tudor sedan that’s presently a very slow moving project (think real cold molasses). It’s a project my old man started back before I was born, that’s now mine to finish. It’s chopped 4”, will be a full fendered car lightly modeled after the Jack Chrisman ‘29 sedan. Have a full set of early Ford 16” wheels that’s will go on with Lincoln type drums up front and what ever works on the back. It has a ‘56 Olds 324 (if anyone has a lead on some #10, #14, or #16 heads.. I’d appreciate it), currently has an Offy 6x2 with 94’s (likely replacing with dual quad for economic reasons), a full set of NOS McGurk 1.5:1 rocker arms, a vintage Mallory dual-point distributor, and a very nice vintage Engle - grind 238 (short duration competition) solid roller cam. Will get a 4spd Muncie M-21. Presently has an early Corvette IRS that will be getting replaced with a winters V8 quick change with the early Ford type bells. If anyone has to have that ‘Vette rear let me know.

    I also have a ‘59 Edsel Villager wagon but that’s a whole different can of worms.. if anyone has a parts car with available trim pieces... or a couple ‘60 Chevy truck hoods layin around.. let me know.
