Been lurking around for a while, figured what the heck, might as well register and join in the fun! My name is Artie, and I have an addiction to hotrods. I've had it as long as I can remember (Although if you ask my wife, that doesn't mean much...) In my family we have a 33 Ford 3 window coupe (Dad's), a 48 Ford convertible (brother's) & my 58 F100 and 64 Rambler. The 58 F100 has 90% of the original faded red paint, a 383 Stroker, 400 turbo trans & a 3.70 geared 9" axle. It has been mildly lowered (approximately 4-5" all the way around...), still retains the stock I beam front axle (Which will be going away shortly as I am wanting to do a subframe conversion on it pretty quick...) The 64 Rambler is my newest project, it is getting mini-tubbed (Wheel wells will be 13" deep), an 8 point bar, a Super T10 4 speed & a tunnel rammed 355... I have not decided as yet on which rear end I will use in the Rambler, but since I already have an 8.8 Ford rear from a Ranger, I will probably use it...
