Hiya guys, my name is Tony, Im 36 and live in south jersey. I grew up helping my grandfather restore old 50s cars. His favorites were the DeSotos, Packards and LaSalles so I got to spend alot of time on those he had. From my dad I got his love of fast fords. He used to drag race a 64 falcon with a 300 six that used to do 11.02 in the quarter in the late 60s early 70s. So basically between the two of them I'm left being a car addict. Right now I own a few toys.. a 68 mustang, with a 450 stroker motor, and a 68 f100 Ive got in a million parts as I redo it from the frame up. Also I found myself in the bike world about 10 years ago, and currently have a 68 xlch sportster and a 68 triumph hardtail with an old harley springer on it. A new 98 roadkind for those long rides. My wife thinks I'm crazy because for the past few years all Ive talked about was getting an 49-56 ford. Im not to picky which style.. My yard is big enough for at least 3 more cars and it just means more stuff for my daughter to get from her old man when she is older. Anyway.. I am thinking this is the summer I get my 50s ford so hopefully I'll be around checkin out things to add to mine..
