Hey Everyone. Seen you guys at the Pileup and thought since the Chrome Czar board is down for a few days we would register. Were Mike and Steve, The Zettle Bros. from Forreston, Il. We had the '65 GTO AFX car at the Pileup. We have a shop in Forreston where we do mostly paint and body work but with the GTO everything was done in house except for the machine work to the engine. Other vehicles we have are a 1927 lakes roadster( that was at last years Pileup) and were currently working on a 1963 Ford Falcon straight axle altered wheelbase drag car.

I shot a couple at the Pileup. Wrong light... pictures DO NOT do this thing justice! Its real nice. Probably the best I've seen Cragar SS wheel look in a long time!
Thanks for the help and posting the pic, I haven't seen that one yet, awsome!!! Had the car out the other day, love the look on peoples faces when we pass by on the road with a old looking drag car!!!
Killer Poncho! That car helped make the Pile-up so cool. From rough rat rod's to sleek custom's to the 'Gasser' look of your seldom done car. The plexi window's set it off as well. An I will second the request for some pic' of the underconstruction gasser.
VonTingler, you have a pic of the 63 Falcon. The pic that you took off of Ebay awhile back of the primered gray '63. That's the one I bought and am putting back together period correct.
Welcome to the board guys! Know ya from the Czar board. It's great to see ya's here, this is a fantastic place. Your "Goat" was outta control. That ride is appreciated here. Stick around, lotsa great people, cars and tech info, plus it's addicting. Joel
Welcome to the HAMB - I love the matching windows, very nice touch. Do you have any family in Jacksonville FL? I worked with a Zettle, hell of a nice guy.
Thanks for the warm welcome!! Dixiedog, I don't know of any relation in Florida but could be related. Pileup was awsome other than I just got a question about a Zettle Bros. Speed Shop Tshirt that I am selling on Ebay. The guy was wondering if we were the ones in the GTO that threw rocks at his coupe when we were coming out of the show? There was no one behind us when we left and I asked him if it was a problem why didn't he stop and tell us at the truck when we were loading the car?
