Noob from Los Angeles, California

Hey there fellas, I recently picked up a 1953 Pontiac.. this will be my first project of this kind so Ive been online looking for alot of information.. everytime I saw a nice Chieftain picture or article it lead me here...so here I am... I'm still very undicided which direction I want to go with this.. so Im hoping to toss ideas around with some of you, and hopefully get going on the right direction... Im really looking foward to being an active member of this forum, thanks for your time
