    Hi All,
    I hail from Verona, WI with a 50 Fleetline rusting away in my garage. It's my first project car, so I obviously don't have much experience with this early iron(bodywork especially). Best way to learn, I figure, is to pick up a welder and go at it.

    Cheers,
    Pat

    I'd be down with that. My Chev doesn't run yet, so you'll have to put up with me in my daily driver for a while. I've been to Racine before for a friend's triathlon, you got a nice town.

    I just got a few pics of my heap. You can see them at http:webpages.charter.net/drmoomoo/50chev

    The engine doesn't run, the interior's a rat nest, the floor is rotted away, and the wiring almost set my garage on fire. I love it
