Hi! I'm a 72-year young hot rodder out in the Pacific Northwest. I have been playing with cars since I was 14 (Model A sedan). My latest obsession is a 1948 Simca-Fiat - basically a rebadged Topolino. Scott Rods out in Ohio built a chassis for me with the stock 80" wheelbase and 40" track. It has a dropped front axle with disc brakes, a 4.3 l Chevy V6, a 700r4 trans. and a narrowed 9" with 3.50 Trac-Loc. I've been working on it for just over 2 years and just got it drivable. John.
