    Been hanging lurking for a awhile may have even posted once or twice.

    Am I a traditional hot rodder? ...yeah, but maybe not as tight ass about it as some. It is a state of mind. '59 thru '65 are probably my favorite years. I lean toward the odd stuff...FEs and nailheads...too may SBCs get shoved into things.

    I have a 65 t-bird convertible that is the never ending project. It is borderline traditional...bagged, shaved, t-thrust 2, vintage cal-custom valve covers and air cleaner in the FE. I got seriously boned by Sideburns down at Aces/Eights several years back and was lucky to get the car back. The work he did was pretty good, but I have still been trying to gather up the missing pieces he stole/lost/gave-away.

    Also have a '60 buick lesabre....364 nailhead It is a virgin. Origonal paint & never modded in anyway 'til I got ahold of it. My plan is a low-budget traditional cruiser. First off, I need to seal up the dynaflow then I can put it on the road...any suggestions for someone that can do the work?

    Anyway, I will be around from time to time...I'll try to give back as much as I take from here.

    regards,
