Re: Hello - New Member - 1st post!!

I am the new guy and maybe a bit of an outsider, with a '57 panel, but....
I scanned the supplier recommendations and didn't see SPEEDWAYMOTORS.com mentioned.
They are in Nebraska and say they have been in business for 60-years.
I love the catalog and have bought a couple hundred $ online.

Very happy with everything and am getting my next order ready.
