I want to start by saying thank you to all of you who have posted information in the tech thread. I've recently noticed, when I search for certain information regarding fabrication recommendations for frame or suspension setups, I tend to end up here. The most recent happened to be a thread about building your own mustang II style cross member, and another about an IRS setup for a rpu. Sadly, I can't say I have a 'hot rod' to apply any of this information to. However, I am in the middle of building myself a daily/parts hauler pickup, a 78 Ford Courier. There's still a long ways to go, but I'll be driving it one day. As for some personal info; I'm 25, married, about to be a father to two girls. I'm hanging out in New Mexico until the Air Force decides to let me go elsewhere. I developed an attraction to cars in general when I was in elementary school since my dad collected hot wheels. Over the years it grew towards classics, antiques and various customized cars. Right now, I have 11 projects, two daily drivers and not nearly enough garage space. Here are some pictures of my courier and a few of my other dust collectors. 68 Toyota Publica (size comparison) 58 Cadillac Coupe DeVille 62 series 74 Toyota Corona Mark II 63 Corvair Monza 900
