Just another friendly welcome, Ben!  emote.img?ID=15298

Glad to have another member in the club.  You can be as little or as much involved as you want to.  We're a pretty laid back club.  Share as much or as little as you want.

Looking forward to meeting you at a club event sometime.

Well me and my Dad built this 68 chevelle that my uncle had for years sitting along the side of his garae and one day we bought it off of his hands. We have had it done for about 5 years and just like cruising around town going to shows and we go with a about 8 chevys to car craft every year. We are putting a new motor in this spring so looking forward to meeting you all and see you around differnt events.

Welcome, I was in sunny, warm (80's) Texas 10 days ago and just saw this. The heck with spring, now I just want Summer !!

What part of town are you in ? Some of us have a little experience with working on cars and may be able to lend a hand for the swap. If no help is needed, John can help drink your beer and watch. Well, not really. If there's a car apart, you have to chain him to the bench to keep him from digging in...

Same with 1hp per cube. When our cars were built, a 375hp 396 or 454 from the factory was the big dog.
