Hi, I signed up today and am building a 34 Chrysler stretch with a 6.1 Hemi, chopped 2.1/2 inches. I noted Ryans intro about "traditional" cars. To me, in the 70's that meant finding a car you liked (pre ww2) and stuffing a huge motor in it and driving it every day !! I am still doing that but am never gunna be a "me too" copy cat with a Ford, SV etc. I never saw most of the cars now being passed off as "traditional" back in the 60's and 70's anyway. Seems memories have faded, most Hot Rods of that time were shot rods and I now enjoy cars that don't break down anymore. Rob
