Hello All
It's been about a month now since I picked up the 73 and the gears are madly churning in my head. This forum is both a blessing and a curse. The depth of knowledge that is available is astonishing but I feel cursed that I have nowhere near the experience that so many others possess here. Oh well, I'll just have to balance that with my utter lack of pride. The eventual objectives for the car will be sebring flares, a rover 8 mated to a borg warner 5 and an 8 inch rear. I'm certain I will have tons of questions for all of you along the way so I suppose this is my attempt at fair warning. I just wanted to let you folks know that I'm ecstatic that this forum exists and that there are so many others out there sharing my obsession.
Tony

Anthony, I'm putting my firewall back together so I'm not far ahead of you. All my friends said "you’re crazy, you can't put a V8 in a little car like that" and now they think it's the coolest car in the shop. While it’s a little intimidating at first, I asked questions here all the time and everyone has been great, so ask away and take lots of pictures. "P"
