Hi guys,
Been lurking around here for the past few months and never took the time to introduce myself. I'm from Staten Island New York, driving a never ending project that is slowly being transformed into a pro-tourer from a street car and I must say, it's been much more fun to drive! My baby is a 69 chevelle that is my first car, I've owned it since Junior year in high school (1983) and is in a new phase of restoration. Looks good to most BUT it needs some cosmetic work since the paint is now 20 years old. Running a Musi built 406 estimated at 450hp (according to Pat), beefed th350 with a gear vendors, 3:73 gears stuffed into a 12 bolt and i've done some of the suspension with SC&C recommended parts. Lee box, Currectrac rear control arms SPC springs and Bilsteins. SC&C front end next. Looking forward to meeting you all and doing my part to contribute when I can.
Rich
If I figure how to post pics, I've got a nice one in front of the intrepid that is one of my favs.

Welcome to the site from a fellow New Yorker, Rich.

I'm out on the other Island, but am originally from Canarsie (Brooklyn).
