Big Al's List Go to http://www.bigalslist.com/ it lists many shows in PA as well as some of the larger shows around the country. Its a huge help for finding races, cruizes, swaps, etc.

Thank the Lord, a Ford in a Ford! :cool:

TIG welding really isnt that tough to do. Basically, if you can gas weld/braze then you pretty much got the basics of TIG welding down. So if ya cant practice TIG specifically, then as long as ya have access to a set of torches, you can still practice the basics of it that way.

What do you think one of those original alumn. engines are worth nowadays? Just as a museum piece alone.

If you have to take tools OFF of your car to repair the screen door on the house...

Hell, the flatty is worth that much if the block isnt cracked! Some people only see whats on the surface as Inked said.

Not doing anything special here, maybe a cookout if TChurch gets his butt in gear. But aside from that, just gonna be home working on the '53.

Haha Gastrick, I know what ya mean. Tchurch and I can get to each other at times, but we're usually right back working along side one another 10mins later. Hey Church, I see you finally made on over! Welcome, I've really enjoyed my time here in the last few days, appears to be a lot of good...

Sorry to hear about Poochie. At least his memory will always live on in your hearts. I bet its never a dull moment there! lol Amanda (my gf) has another dog, but hes mainly become her brothers, but he is a chocolate lab and when they had gotten him, I was still dirt racing and had gotten my...

Reason, you'll have to get some pix up, my gf and I would love to see 'em. Aerial is still young, so every time she hears a door, doorbell, etc. she goes bonkers. She doesnt even want you thinking about coming through that door if you dont belong there. lol But she really is a excellent dog...

You said it, Inked! I'll admit, she has a mean bark, but as soon as shes done barkin' shes licking your face off! We have a couple friends that have Dobie's and stuff, they're dogs are huge, dont bother them a bit. Aerial is a little tyke and they are scared to death of her. It is a shame...

Aerial Heres my shop pooch... Her name is Aerial (after the new fire truck the local fire dept. just got - my gf's father is the fire chief and has been for 20 years). Shes and American Pitbull Terrier, shes about a year and a half. My gf got her from the local animal rescue shelter. The pic...

I know exactly what you mean! From what I understand, they have, within the last year, allowed any pre '48 vehicle WITH a Hot Rod plate, to run without fenders. Until now, you absolutely had to have fenders and all the other bull crap to really limit creativity with your automobile. Hell, they...

Yeah, but I bet the fish still have 3 eyes! haha I'll be honest, if I had the scratch, I'd move outta Penna. Some of the latest stats we're hearing is PA is the 2nd oldest state as far as average age goes (only behind FLA.). Not to mention last I heard close to 47% of "young people" were...

If you know where Monroeville and Penn Hills are, Plum boarders them. We're just east of the city, roughly 20miles.

Don, glad to hear nothing happened to you. I dont own a gun, however have been contemplating it for some time now. I dont live in the worst area, but by no means am I leaving my doors open at night either. One thing I always worried about was my enclosed race trailer and the racecar and...

The Choppers is a good b-flick. Junkman, done by H.B. Halicki, same guy that did the original Gone In 60 Seconds. He has another car flick too, but the name escapes me. Oh, and The Big Wheel is another old b-flick starring Mickey Rooney as a young racer following in his deceased fathers foot...

I used this method in a number of places on my '53 F-100, mainly where you'll see the welds themselves. Always makes for a nice look when done correctly.

Very true, now if I lived in an area where people actually loved working on old cars and trucks then maybe I'd have a whole group full of crazy beer drinkin' SOB's! lol

Thanks! As much as I love building 'er and cant wait get 'er out on the road, the real fun is spending the time in the shop with my father.
