Welcome Pete.
We like Hotrods & Racing of any Sort.
 
welcome to the site! thats one purty little bucket you got there... i love the t bucket guys that dont go for rat rodding, most of your setups are clean enough to eat off of.
 
Always wanted 1 but had to wait till I was retired. Retired now but do to health problems I have from working in the Atomic Bomb plant I can't build my own. Spirit is building my dream for me and I think it si looking good :D
 
looking good is an understatement, sorry to hear about your health issues, i wish we could all get to that age and still be able to enjoy ourselves the way we want to.
 
I now have a due date of the week of the 19th! I will travel to Flippin, Arkansas to drive it home. That is a 600 mile trip so she should be ready to hit the cruising circuit.
 
Now that's exciting, bet it's getting hard to sleep with your dream so close to fruition.
Be cool, don't let that 6 year old out for everyone to see !!! :cool:

You are doing great with the photos!

Man that's a sweet looking car! What kind of engine did you pick? What options
do you have for an engine?
 
It is a 350 190hp, I don't need a dragster .hehehe 350 tbh tranny not sure on the rear end ratio ? I wanted a driver not a trailer queen ! I also had a cruise control added, I plan on going to cruising's near and far away.
 
Man I wish I had cruise control, I do have plans for installing it in the future thou.

No trailer queen for me either. If I don't drive it every week, I start getting the shakes real bad! :D
