What's up fellas?

[mustang1989]

Hello to all. My name is Joe and I've been around the modeling forum realm for around 10 years and building models on and off for the last 40 or so years. I had left the hobby a few decades back but came back to it while trying to find something to occupy my mind that was halfway productive around 12 years ago. I started out building scale WWII aircraft but switched to automotive subjects around 7 years ago. I still enjoy building an aircraft here and there but much prefer to build street rods and street machines.
Anyhow I'm looking forward to getting in here and getting to know everyone as well as to learn a thing or to more and to contribute back to this great hobby of ours.

Welcome to MA, Joe! This is (in my experience) the best and most helpful forum around. The key words are and have always been "helpful" and "friendly".
I look forward to seeing your builds!

I had a '67 notchback with a warmed over 351 4bbl Windsor from a 69 Mach 1 with a 4spd and 3.55 gears. I really miss that car.

Welcome!

Thanks Mr. T. At first glance on your avatar I was a little thrown off as when I see the name Mr. T. I think of BA Baracus from the A-Team. Glad to be here bud.

Fyi....My other hobby (and a much more expensive hobby at that) is hotrodding as if that couldn't be guessed already.

My current ride is a 1994 Silverado equipped with a 383 stroker motor, built up 4L60 transmission with a 2200rpm stall converter and 4.10 gears.

It's currently sporting a 680 cfm 2 barrel TBI unit with 454 fuel injectors on top but I'm switching out hopefully this next weekend to something a little better.

I miss the sound of a full throated romp of the throttle on a 4 bbl carb. Nice sleeper, love the stepside also.

Me too. It's been 20 years since I've had a vehicle with a carburetor on it. I've had the truck for going on 11 years now and she's got 429,000 miles on her.

Thanks Chris. I recognize the name but can't place from where....which other forum are you with me on? Thanks for the humbling words. I'm hoping I can live up to them.
