If you make a mistake, please edit and correct it. Don't compound it. You can also delete incorrect posts and start over.

Why did you weld the connection? Most people just use solder.

Bah. Excuses, excuses.

Age doesn't cut too much slack with me. While you've got a few years on me, you're not that far ahead. Let me put it this way: Today is my eldest grandchild's third birthday.

It's nice to hang out somewhere I'm not the old-timer! Y'all have about a generation on me.

Just out of curiousity, how did you stumble into this hobby, billmcca1? Are you a ham?

billmcca1 · 03-10-2003

no not a ham, just a retired truck driver with too much time on his hands use to race over 40 mx got hurt and had to give that up, son inlaw built a compu, so i had to built one

Saw the Chevy - it's a beaut. I like the understated paint. I've come to the conclusion that all the cars I lusted after in High School are just out of reach. I could buy them, but I don't have the time, money or patience to keep them running well.
