Another Old Rodder!
I guess compared to 5,000+ posts, I am a newbie. 65 yr old Proud American gearhead. Married, 2 grown boys, 2 grown daughters, 4 grandsons. Semi-retired (auto parts sales-2 days/week.) ...oh yeah, I have Parkinson's so can't do a lot I used to, but God still blesses EVERY DAY!....enuff 'bout me.
Daily driver; 56 F100, faded, few rusty spots, 75 350, 350, lunatti stageII, stall, 3 " dropped axle w/disc, 9" rear, Jeep booster/mstr. cyl., Toyota 4-whl drive pwr. steering box (drives sweet), EZ wire, 64 Ford str. wheel, 1967 Keystone alum. wheels, 32" shifter w/BIG SKULL, new rubber & stuff. Junkyard build with a lot of help from good friends.
Next project: 51 Ford 2 dr. Sedan, in primer, 69 Camero sub, S-10 rear, Nissan interior(decent). It has a custom frontend,.........kinda straight down with an oval opening(yuck). I plan to modify the opening to accept the 49 Merc grille I have. Also have nos 49 Merc taillites. I guess it will be a clone. Flat black, taildragger, bubble skirts, spots, lakepipes. I will post pics when I get it "unburied" from the back of the shop.....soon.
I enjoy RRR very much. Cain't make it one day without checkin' you guys out. Talk to you later.
