thanks for the welcome sir x loin. well i dont have any pics of ant projects i have, cause i dont currently have one. i did just score a nice potential power plant for one though. </a> '51 331 hemi out of a new yorker for $260, compl w/ ******. i know the trannies in those werent any good, but with that trick adapter plate ill have a 5 sp behind that in no time. i would love to build a model a pickup (or any truck 29-34) along these lines </a> (not exactly like that, but the tradiotional hot rod stripped down look) and then paint it like a WWII p-40 </a> maybe fab up a cylindrical gas tank in the bed to look like an old h-bomb or something. those are just some ideas rolling around in my head. i don't know if its been done already, but i havent seen it. on a different note, are there any must attend cruise nights or rod shows in the area you know of?
