Re: Helo from San Diego
Well a little bit about me, I grew up with a Dad who was crazy about Fords. Although I like most of the big three's styling, I have owned mostly Fords in my life. But I used to drive a '71 C20 with a 454, 4:11 gears and a shift kit for company truck. I would surprise more sports cars with that truck, I really loved it, and was bummed when it was time to sell it. When an older friend of mine said that he knew a guy that was getting rid of one I just had to have it, So here I am on the other side of the fence, and loving it. In my younger days I really loved to modify things to make them my own, as my dad did before me in his hot rodding days. He took about 40 years off while he worked to support our family, all the while saying "one of these days Mike...". Well I was determined that I would not say that to my kids. So here I am, a little inspiration and alot of advice, hopfully not a whole lot of money and I will have a really cool project that will inspire others to build what they see in their mind not just what the catalog says they can afford.
Mike
