Well, I'm not new, but I've been gone awhile. Reasons are many, but I've been working on my 68 and actually driving it recently. It feels good.
I did the disc brake upgrade last fall and it went pretty smooth. I wish I had done it sooner. My Chevy buddy even helped me put it back together. I paid him back by welding in motor mounts to his 86 Cutlass so we could drop in a 455 Buick.
Now my summer goal is to get the 460 into my 68. I'm sure I'll need some advice to help with that project.

re: Back in the saddle
Thanks for the welcome. I'm working on pictures. I thought I had some on here before, but they might be long gone. I took some pictures of my front end/disc brake swap that I need to get online sometime.
