      New guy

      Hello everyone. I have been on this site for quite awhile and have just been reading and getting some ideas and finally decided I should post up. I love the cars and ideas that everyone has come up with and also this a very informative site as well. I have a few vehicles (none of which are near perfect ) but my 68 Sport wagon is going to be my cheap pro-touring project. I am open to some ideas but am on a limited budget so motor/trans and paint are first. I am going with a 6.0 LS based motor with a 6 speed. I am planning on keeping it fuel injected for the reliability and mileage. I will include some pics. Any comments or questions feel free to post.

      Thanks guys. It was a western car from Idaho and Washington so all the rust is just surface thankfully which is why I want to do the paint and body first to keep it nice.

      Thanks. I am actually plannig a dark blue over light blue 2 tone paint with the split in color about an inch below the window line. The gray and red do look good though, it just won't work with my blue interior.
