Greetings all,

This is my first post, so I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Sean Evans and I am from St. Pete, FL. I teach Physical Science and am 37 years old. I just recently purchased a 1971 Chevelle (dream car for me, lol) that looks to be half-way between a street/pro-touring application maybe, but I want to convert her to a full Pro-Tourer. I have the will, but not the know-how, so I will be heavily dependent on the knowledge and advice of everyone here, lol!

I am currently looking to start suspension upgrades, so you will find me over there alot for now, lol! Any and all suggestions and/or advice welcome!
Thanks!
Sean
