Are there any automotive Explorer post out there. Our old hot rod club is thinking of starting one to keep our club going. We are trying to come up with a way to get new blood into hot rodding, were all in our late 60's- early 70's. I'm involved in the Explorer SCOUTING PROGRAM in model railroading and I know something about it. I was just wondering if anybody has one.
Not an Explorer Post, but in the same vein, my son started an "auto shop" cl*** at the Seattle Lutheran High School. The cl*** meets at his garage every other Sunday afternoon for three hours. They are rebuilding a 1958 Ford Ranch Wagon that they will sell at the end of the school year to fund next year's project. My son, who started helping me when he was 6 (now 38), has been worried about all the young guns in their rice-burners, and felt a need to educate them about old, American iron. They have replaced the 352 with a 390, and are sanding down the body, re-building the brakes, etc. The cl*** is an actual credit-earning elective. Needless to say, I'm one proud dad! John
