Hey Welcome, I'm new to this site and live in TX too. My wife is from Sherman and I worked a O.M. for 15 years.
Hey, I'm another FNG. I am 22 and have always been into kustoms of some sort. My current project is a 54 four door with no top... long story. I am always looking for a show to go to. Where is Jamiefest? I would like to go.

What a funny guy!!It took you long enough to finally post!S****e really is a good guy and here is a few pics of his car.
Your gay and so is your car.Its about time you made a post Troy.When are you gunna put that front drive dist. set up in that 283?
Very cool 55' I especially like the 283 and the wheel well headers. I like the way it sits, you haven't cut out the rear wells. Keep up the good work.
Let me know if you need an extra set of hands messing with the suspension deal on the '55 ,like you were talking about.
Welcome to the HAMB s****e! I dig your 55, The 55's are my favorite of the tri fives. Keep up the good work.
Welcome from another 55 lover. Just finished building two - working 14 months of weekends (GODZILLA and DRAGRCR50). We built them together...had a great time. If you make it to MOCAN on the 27th drop by and see us, "Central State G***ers." You will be welcome. Ron.
thanks guys, you can never get enough compliments. although this car is geting some changes this winter. ill be droping in a 455 olds th400 trans set back 10in also on the list are a straight axle and cuting the wheelwells. godzilla your car is very cool. as for mokan i cant make that but i plan on going to the drags in temple. ill still be runing the setup i have now 40over 283 t5 5speed olds rear 5.57 gears so ill be driving down there real slow haha.
If you need any advice on the straight axle deal check with dragrcr50. His shop installs them...can sell you the parts...or clue you into the best way to go to save bucks. Ron.
