    Hola amigos
    Found the forum recently, been browsing and searching...just gotta say why didn't I find this sooner, lots of great posts and info I found already

    Im Steve or dfwchop, live in Dallas on the East side, born and raised around here from the cliff to the burbs
    Been a car and bike guy the majority of my 36 years, think it started with those electric cars your parents buy you at 4
    I've been a Jeep, truck, 70's rods, and bike novice builder since I was around 15...I got into the more nostagic rods with my 60 Impala
    She is named Diablo Suerte (lucky devil for those of you not so close to the border)
    She was born with all 4 limbs, and has all her original organs, and has recently had some work on her front joints

    Diablo's specs:
    283 3 on the tree
    front end - tubular GW control arms uppers and lowers, 2" drop spindles, 75 monte carlo calibers and 11" rotors, 2" lower springs
    rear 3" lower
    MT cl***ics 15x8 (not in current pic) with 295x55 rears and 225x60 fronts
    new fuel tank
    working on the interior with some new Mexican blanket (Serapa style)

    Anyway enough for now...I am going to be doing a engine build with blower in the next months and am collecting ideas and parts I need

    Thanks in advance, this should be fun

    Welcome from Denton. Let me know if you are in the area, and need a couple of cold beers. Or a wrench.
