Dale Fairfax from Indy here. I've been lurking here for awhile and finally decided I'd better "come out" if I ever wanted to say anything. '68 years old; have had automobile pox since age 12 (a particularly virulent strain at that: I caught it hanging around garages where track roadsters were housed.); didn't do nearly as much rod related stuff as I wanted to along the way-'51 Vicky with "Y" Block in 1956: Scratch built "T" bucket with 283 in the late '60s (P.O.S.); '53 F-100 with 8EL Flathead 1983 to present; '32 Ford 5 wdw with 286" Flathead built from a 25 year accumulation of parts and on the road since '93. Currently working on a replica of a Northern Indiana track roadster that was featured in H.R.M. in January 1951. Worked in mfg at Chevrolet Motor Div for 25 years & various metal fabricating companies until retiring 3 years ago. Have had my character impugned over on Fordbarn for speaking up about redundancy-I guess I didn't realize that everybody didn't read the site's postings every day like I do. Any how I'm now here where I EXPECT to get slammed every now and then.
