    Hey , I've been coming to this site for tech info for quite awhile , I appreciate all the advice guys have takin the time to write down or take pictures of . My latest build is a 29 model a , some guy started it and was heading in a ratrod direction. Those are great , but not for me. Hopefully I can redirect this girl into a style I have always loved. My grandpa was a hotrodder back in the 40's and 50's , he's gone but one of his buddies is 84 years old and still builds and works on race cars and vintage stuff everyday.I go to him for advice , but he dont always feel like talking , when he don't , I come here. I found a 40 ford front axle , backing plates, and whole set up on a farm near me. I have a set of Buick finned front drums, today I will start cleaning and disassembleing and eventually mate the two together. This forum is great and has gave me several ideas and directions on how to do that , thank you , stooda

  15. Would love to have you there! It's open to most stuff but I am responsible for getting the cars rounded up for the "traditional" area.
