    Sounds like a really good find. Sounds like you bought some parts and they threw in a car. Sweet. :thumbs2:

    No I would have looked you up if I had been, ran across this pic on another forum I belong to. Forum is Jalopy Journal, sub forum H.A.M.B. (Hokey Ass Message Board) it is in one of the community car club groups pics. Looked like a great show and hope to make it next year.
