Hi The Car: 1951 Chevrolet Styleline 4D "green is the color" Stock framerails / stock body / near stock interior No body modifications planned / steel wheels to go Ford 300 six EFI / turbo JW Ultra Bell mated TH-350 w/manual vb + stuff SVO alu driveshaft Ford 9" 3.00 gears Detroit Locker race 31-spl Chassis Engineering Mustang II front suspension Chassis Engineering Leaf Spring Kit in the back 11" disc brakes all around (rear: "Explorer conversion) The Dude: I'm 36, married, used to work with computers for the past 9 years, no kids, one Fink-lookalike 17 year old cat, one lazy dog, I'm kinda fat & lazy myself. Also gettin' bald and can't figure out the tuning stuff and plastic car parts. Usually hang out at http://www.fordsix.com and a couple of other places. The GeoStats: Finland. Like most everyone on this planet I value and appreciate HAMB greatly. I don't think that I can be much of a contributor, unless someone wants to do a psychological study on people who have an urge to do things oddball. I strongly suck with my metal fabrication skills. I'm glad to have at least some friends who can shape metal. Spent the years '85-'86 in Carlisle, PA due to family involvement in U.S. Army War College. Our house was appr. 1/4 mile from the Fairgrounds. Lucky me ? You bet - I went to every Carlisle event back then. I've tried drag racing too, it was fun, but - - kinda too time consuming in relation to actually having some behind-the-wheel time. We had a nice engine, however, and there's a picture of that at http://www.majorvacuumleak.com where I'll be posting some pics about the '51 as it progresses. Best wishes, Muki
