Already posted some stuff in the swap area so I thought I'd better do the intro thing.
Been playing cars since i was 9 started with hotwheels and slots. Put an 120 v electric motor on a wagon using the v belt to replace 1 tire rubber. had a long extension cord hooked up with a wall switch to turn it on and off. Up and down the road in front of our home. American grafitti got me really turned on. I've gone thru a bunch of 55 - 56- 57 chevy cars and a 59 apache as well as a 36 dodge coupe and 1920 t speedster that I sold to a guy in sweden. preasently have a 62 impala with a 348.
Welcome aboard from Blackstock [just E. of Port Perry] think I've seen your car at the Uxbridge cruise in??? Thurs. nights. I will be there this week, likely in 64 Pontiac Catalina [white] Htp. or could bring the 52 pontiac Torpedo back "Black" Pete

Yea it would be graham. He's into truck pulling big time. He'a a good friends cousin. Looked for you at uxbridge last night. They had about 250 cars. Even had them parking on the grass. Big night is next Thursday.
Do you know Russ Carnagan? I was at his place picking up a rear end pot earlier this year.
