Hi Byron,
I have really enjoyed looking at this site for the past year. Since I have
been checking out the gassers and old style drag cars I have been trying
to find something to put together. I had a lead on a 51 Henry J but like
most of them it was gone. So I had just went on with my other project and
figured that I will get one of the cars to make a gasser when the time is
right. Well, after a few months had passed I had went whit a friend to
pick up a 63 Chevy that he had bought from a guy and needless to say there
was a car there that I just had to have. So I played it off as though I
liked it but that I was not all that interested in it. So I had gone home
and just about freaked out. I began looking at this website with dreams of
getting this car. Finally the day came and the guy had stopped by my house
and he fell in love with our Conversion van. Since we were not using it at
the moment I had offered it to him for an even trade. Well, he went home
and a week later he agreed to trade. This was the start of what has become
a sickening disease for me to get this car done for the shows this year. I
can honestly say that I. Love having this disease and I hope that there is
never a cure for it. Well, I hope to see my little 55 posted upon your
site and I will gladly post pics as I move on with the progress of "gittin
r done". Picture 1 is the way it was when I found it, 2 is when I got it
home and began to mock the car up with what I had, and picture 3 is the
way it is right at the moment.
Thanks Joe Lockwood |
