    Hey everyone, my name's Ryan and I'm 25. I live in northeast Oklahoma. I've been lurking on here for a while and decided I'd join.

    I have a car that's been in the family since new, and there's a little history to go with it. I have a 1952 Ford Customline that was purchased new by my great grandparents. The car has remained in the family since then. It has 48,000 miles on it. It has sat for the last 20 years or so and I couldn't let that happen to this ol girl. My buddy trailered it to me and I've been tinkering for the last 6 months on it. Thanks to resources such as this forum, etc. I have been able to learn new things, work on the car myself without paying someone to do it for me, and I've managed to get her running and drivable (in the yard so far) for under $150 dollars.

    Enough rambling, just wanted to be sure to introduce myself before jumping in on a post.
