Another Frozen Chosen from the Great White North

[sc5080]

Hi. I've been lurking around for a little while now and I guess I should introduce myself - Larry Arnold from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I've been car crazy since I was a kid .. and that was a long time ago. Started racing stock cars locally back in 1970 and have raced cars or motorcycles ever since. I've been drag racing for the last 20 years or so and am starting to think I'd like to try building something fun for the street. The level of fabrication skills evidenced in the build threads I read has totally impressed me and the look of some of the "rats" I see on this site is awe inspiring. Here are a couple pictures of my dragster, my daughters junior, and the 81 Granada I've saved from the crusher and plan to use for a weekend cruiser and hopefully get my wife to take a ride down the strip with .. LOL.

Welcome to RRR Larry. Nice dragsters. Looks like your daughter is collecting some hardware.

Thanks. Yeah, she has more trophies than I do ... and so does her older sister! The older one has stopped racing to concentrate on university now though. They both have managed to win track championships in the junior class and I'm quite proud of their accomplishments.

Welcome Larry, nice looking dragsters you have there. I believe you will find rat rods equally as fun and challenging.
