    Hi everyone.

    I got my 64 last spring (2011) and have been tinkering with it ever since. I am 37 and have had the hot rod bug since a kid. My first car was a 74 mustang, I know not the most desireable year, but when you're 15 it'll do. Since then I have owned a 67 mustang and now own a 2010. I have to admit I have the 4x4 bug as well, and currently own a 99 TJ wrangler and a 2000 XJ cherokee.
    I am looking forward to making lots of progress on the Fairlane. I was lucky in that it is very solid and it is still running well. That's mandatory at my house, any projects must be running, outside of down for servicing.

    I really enjoy this site and its wealth of knowledge. I'll post some pics soon, currently I am at work on this sunday, when I should be home working on the Fairlane. :mad:

    Here are some more. Thanks for all your comments. ;)

    I am wondering, where do you post your general questions at? Do I just continue the thread here and start asking questions?
