    Sorry guys for not following the rules and introducing myself.

    My name is Gary Ratliff and I live in Longview, TX. I own a 1939 Ford Coupe which I bought in 1963 when I was 9 years old. (True Story) Have owned and kept the car all the year. Kind of strange driving a car at 52 years old which I am now and realizing you learned to drive in that same car when you were 9 years old. Strang but cool!

    My other car is an original Forty Willys Coupe that I bought in 1970. An old drag car but not one that has been cut up. Runs a Hilborn injected 302 cubic inch small block, 4 speed, with a 5:38 Olds.

    I teach at a local community college. The job allows me time to work on my cars.

    Just recently found the website and enjoy it. Again, please forgive me for not showing proper respect. I am old-school and believe you should always show respect and your word is bond
