Jumping In

Just joined the forum... looking forward to the discussions. I just bought a '51 F1 that had been in a barn since 1986 - untouched. Pretty rough... engine is seized - but excited to get started on the "project". I've been looking for a 51 for years... it was the first car I had after I got my license back in 66. Should be fun!
