    Hello all from an old hotrodder/street racer in North Dallas TX! (Yep... I cut my teeth on Forest Lane in the '60s and '70s!)

    I've been lurking here for awhile and finally decided to register.

    I ran a lot of '64-'66 Darts, Valiants, and Barracudas back in the day, and have used all the Mopar small blocks; 273/318/340/360... even had an AAR 340 6-pack in one of them!

    Since the '80s I've had and built mostly 1st Gen Mustangs, and just last year bought my first Chevelle project, and am having to re-educate myself on Chevrolets!

    If any member here will be attending the SWA Employees Classic Carshow in September, look up the ratrod-looking '68 Chevelle. I know it won't be finished, or even painted by then, but it will be there in place of my '64.5 Mustang.

    Dave

        Hello to all those Bang shifter's, My name is Garrett, I am 17 years old and im just starting to learn about Hot rodding up cars. I have a 1966 ford Fairlane my dad gave me, my dad is Fordman and he gave me this car when I turned 16 for my birthday present. and ive been working on it ever since. these last few months I've been working hard to try and get it running for the summer when I start driving. im a big fan of Drag Racing and Cruising around Woodward and Telegraph and just going up to local car shows and I hope to be taking my car to them. and I hope to learn a lot about the automotive world.

Tell Fordman to get back online...we miss him!! And please, post alot, read alot, and we'll hold up our end of the deal.

          Welcome, again.
