    Hi folks. Been lurking about since June, and did the un-thinkable; posted once or twice before doing this intro thing. Sorry about that.

    Have always had an interest in cars back to the 60s and finally have gotten to a place & time where I can do something.

    Cars I've owned..
    50 Dodge
    57 Dodge Coronet
    58 Merc Monterey
    60 Ford Starliner
    67 Dodge Coronet
    56 Lincoln Premiere (2x)

    All of those were "stock"; no mods

    Presently, I've got a 40 Chrysler Royal Coupe and I don't plan on anything too far out....just making a good driver out of it.

    Disc brakes up front (either use stock suspension with Chrys or GM rotors/calipers, or MII conversion)
    A 331 Chrysler hemi with a 727 or an A-518. Ford Explorer rear.

    Not sure if this vehicle necessarily will qualify on the HAMB as I dont anticipate chopping it.
    If not, I still have some ?s regarding drive-train choices and hope that I can ask without getting too much flak.

    Want to say how much I enjoy reading all the threads (got 50 subs so far)
    There is some great talent on here. And quite the range of projects.

    Thanks Ryan for a great site,
    Gatz
