Hello!

Figure the thing to do is introduce myself. I'm in my mid 30s currently living in Lubbock, Texas. I have had my '71 Demon since ~2006 and have been slowly getting it where I want it.

After having twins and years of little progress I have motivated myself with the goal of joining the 2016 power tour with some friends. Pics below are from right before my twins were born. I had just finished rebuilding the rear end including suspension.

Yeah we had a shake up last year due to some issues with the state and our annual event in Palo Duro Canyon etc. So it is no longer Amarillo Area Mopars but they still pulled together a good show at Thompson Park last October.
