Been at PF every year since 1988 as spectator. Got married at 91 nats. Cool she came with a 55 effie. still got them both and still working on both. Long line of Henrys finest in the past I should have kept them all!
Her toy:55 F-100. 351w, Cordoba IFS posi 9 inch, hydraulic tilt front. Just need to wire and paint NEED RUNNING BOARDS!(hint) It will be a NICE driver unlike my street beaters.
My toys:
68 Stang
68 Cougar straight axle 460
71 Hippie Ch##Y Van
99 F-250 Super duty V-10
99 Honda ACE 1100

Welcome aboard! Stick around, the humor is plentiful, and the people nice.
1968 cougar straight axle 460? Is this a gasser treatment?
Anyways, I've been going to all the shelby cobra events trying to find a girlfriend.....

The Cougar is a work in progress as well. not Track worthy yet. and a lot of fab'in to go.
Found a pair of 1966 Keystone rims and built a car around them. Kinda funny, it now has an old Harwood straight tube with 55 F-100 springs and spindles. Sits sky high Gasser style with 12.5 X 31 slicks stickin out the quarters. Savin' for the disc brakes. Been building this car with lunch money and early 70's era swap meet parts but it will still be safe. Kinda fun doing this one a little at a time. Sould be a rela heart attack when done.
And since I have this thing for tilt front ends.......
