    hello all, i broke the seal, so to speak by posting some mooneyes xmas party in july pics so i might as well introduce myself. i have been lurking awhile and have learnd much here. i have a 1960 chevy apache and its getting bagged and needs some powertrain work, slow and steady will get it done soon?? i also just picked up a 1948 ford perfect, its supposed to have been a drag car but the fab work is just plain scary! a rolling shell so im thinking fenderles, slammed and six banger powered. i try to get on the form as much as i can to read and learn. i went to viva this year and had a blast, it was a turn arount trip but next year will stay for the whole thing. i try to make as many local shows as i can, family permiting (sadly my mother is ill and she is my main priorty). so here i am. reading, learning and working on my rides!

    thanks, mark

    ps- a few pics of my projects

    Is that a British '48 Ford??? I'm not familiar with that car. It's oddly small.

    I'm in LA too. Enjoy HAMB.
