Ha! I am that guy. My Dad started the local car club and I work on most of the local classics and hot rods at work ( I run and wrench in a local auto repair shop). This is a real small area. The "car guys" pretty much all know each other.
If I could figure out how to post some pictures on here I would post a couple of the 1929 Oakland Sport Roadster I just finished building the wood body structure for I started working on it in my spare time 5 years ago. 2 Winters ago I went through the entire drive train and rewired a 1935 Pontiac. This past summer I rebuilt (including making the impeller shaft) the water pump for a 1902 curved dash Olds. After the water pump was done I got the old girl fired up for the first time in around 14 years. I have a All original (other than the transmission) '73 charger rallye 340. It came with an auto but after owning it for 20+ years I decided to find all the correct '73 4 speed parts and swap it over.
My 65 Valiant will be converted from 3 on the tree to a 340 4 speed 8.75 combo. I'm just now stripping it down to replace the floor pans. After that its getting sub frame connectors, rear spring relocation and some other chassis tricks. Paint will be a light metallic silver with a ox blood red gut.
