Another poor Newb!

I have been lurking for a while around here. I need to start asking questions so I figured I better introduce myself. So here goes....


I am a car junky! lol I have had around 75 various cars and trucks. Nothing real special or valuable unfortunately. I have decided to quite screwing around and get my junk built before life passes me by! I have a obsession with off road stuff but have into hot rods & muscle car all my life. I came home from the hospital in 1970 in a `68 Dodge Dart GTS. So that planted the seed of being a mopar guy. But I like them all and can appreciate the time & $$$ spent on them.


This is my junk list

1947 Studebaker pickup...have had this about 20yrs now. I am researching parts for a new chassis right now.

1968 Dodge Dart Gt convert... It's a GTS clone..complete with rust! 340/auto. It need a total ground up but it will have to wait for a few years. It does run but is not drivable right now. This has been one of my dream cars for a long, long time.



1969 Toyota Landcruiser...Total rockcrawler. It will chopped up and tubed out. 1ton axles, 42in tires, 5.3 LSX/4l60, 3spd transfer case, the list goes on.


All 3 are complete and total projects. I have bunch parts for each of them. I am going to be building the landcruiser and the Stude at the same time. It will be slow because of time and money. I will be doing them as cheap as possible but not building a pos either. I have to finish a few little projects and then I will be on to the new Stude chassis.
