Streetrodder from Oklahoma

[JohnHancock]

im a 72 year old that refuses to grow up.....well ADMIT to growing up! I worked with a top fuel front engine dragster in the early ‘70s (Pete Robinson for you old farts). I fell in love with front engine dragsters and built a streetrod inspired by them back then. Now I want another. I have been planning this for 10 years and now have gathered enough parts to mock it up. I have a ‘23 T body, wheels, 454” engine and most important a 671 GMC blower and a a Pete’s Engineering blower drive. When I have something interesting I will post pictures.

If you don't grow up soon, you will need to go back to High School.

Never grow up. It's what keeps you young.

There is a big difference between growing up and growing old. Growing Old is when you give up and use age for an excuse. Growing up is reaching a point where you own your mistakes.

And you're in jail!
