Hello
<FONT size=2>
Hello,</P>
I would like to introduce myself. I am an automobile enthusiast. I have many different type of automobiles and I don’t discriminate any type. I presently own a few weekend warriors such as a 92 Mustang LX 5.0, 1969 BB Corvette, 69 Chevelle SS, and a 78 Z-28. I do most of my own work. I do mechanical and body work. Presently, I am in the middle of restoring the 78 Z-28. I have half of the bodywork done and will be replacing the quarters soon. Since this is the Mustang forum, I bought my 92 new and have loved it since. My 92 is pretty much stock except for the Flowmasters. I have 59,000 miles on it. </P>

Well, I am hitting about 50%.While in high school and college, I made cash rebuilding and repainting cars. I would come across a few that I would keep for myself, such as the Z-28. I have painted and rebuild many cars during this time, but tried to keep the good ones for my use. I am in the middle of the Z-28, and the Chevelle is next. I inherited the Chevelle from my uncle, so this one has a family value on it. I have the engine out of the chevelle and is ready to back in. All I will say about the the Chevelle is 427 cubic inch stroker. I bought the vette about 4 years ago and at that time it didnt run. It is now running and looks pretty good. The vette needs apaint job, which may happen in the next year. The vette is a low priority, since is runs and look decent. By theway thevette is a convertible. I have two kids and a wife, so spare time is hard for me to find, that iswhy I like the 5.0, turn the key and it ready to go.</P>
If there is a place that will host some pics, I can upload some.</P>
