      the new girl in town.

      hey guys, just found this site while researching different headlight options for my '68 firebird project. i was born and raised in nyc, but recently moved out to tn so i can live out a big dream of mine, to build up my first car.

      it's been a daily, but now i'm trying to gather the resources to start turning it into a pro-touring daily.



      i just bought the car on the 19th of december so right now it's in the planning stages, but i'm banking on getting started ASAP.

      hmm, not sure what else to say -- hope everyone else had a good new year

      Welcome aboard! Nice 'Bird, looks like a great foundation for a PT car. How's living in TN compared w/ NY? Not much different, huh?

      I'm thinking culture shock...lol The thing you'll miss the most from NY is the food... I moved from Staten Island to Las Vegas a few years ago... I plan my trips back around places to go eat...

      Welcome fellow former New Yorker and Bird builder
      I'm putting together a 67 right now. What are your plans for the engine/tranny? Going with Poncho power or Cheby?
