Good afternoon!

Thanks for letting me into this most interesting group of hot rodders!

I recently invested in a partially completed project and hope to take it on its first major trip in April. Bought a 1946 Ford Coupe with an all Ford hotrod drivetrain from a mid-60's Ford. So far so good... just finishing up details and some wounds from sitting a couple of years with no use.

Thanks again! Look forward to chatting with you guys!

I can barely turn this on

Guys,

I can barley turn this on! <grin> Doesn't qualify for a "Build" but I couldn't drive it home because of it sitting too long. First car I ever bought that I didn't drive home. Let me see if I can figure it out.

Hi and welcome to RRR from northern Alberta. I hope the Previous Owner was a reasonable builder, so you'll be laughin' all the way to the bank. A Ford in a Ford; you got my vote right away.
There's a Mercury coupe in my future, [I think]. This is a photoshop version.
