Greatest trk site ever

Just wanted to let everybody on here know that stumbling on this forum was 1 of the best things I have done in awhile. I'm on my 3rd night of reading the projects and builds. The info on here is amazing. Right now I have a 72 chevelle, 434 sb, 3.55 12 bolt, around 600 hp. we drive it every wk end it's not raining and really enjoy it. I drag raced for yrs, and the street thing is new to me, but for a little over a yr I'ver been going to cruise in's and meeting a lot of new people. I'm wanting to build something, 40's or 50's, and I love the older chevy trks. I want to build a stout semi pro street, 12 in tire trk. May use the chevelle eng and replace it with something milder for the wife to drive. Been looking at craigslist, racing junk etc. for a candidate. Would like to find a abandoned project that I'd aquire some extra parts, instead of starting with a bone stock piece. Well, better get back to reading, love your all's. projects
