    Hi all,:tiphat:

    I joined the forum last fall but did not post since I had no car to talk about. I am proud to say that is no longer the case as I have found a 74 2dr factory 302 car (not grabber):dance: . The car has normal rust for a mid atlantic car and need shelp on both qrts driver side door, one spot on passenger floor and the rt front fender needs some attention. The guy I am buying it from has alrready converted the rear bumper to the small bumper which is cool. I will post some before picks when I get the car!

    My goal is a 12-13 sec. street/strip car with minimal light local cruising. Initial $ emphasis will be on go not show!

    Thanks in advance for answering my questions and helping with the painful parts searches.

    Jamie

    P.S. I will be playing at MIR (Maryland International Raceway) which you racers may have seen on a few episodes of PINKS on speed channel.
