    well, i'm not really a kid, but i'm probably one of the younger guys here. my car is a 70 maverick with the 170 cubic inch 6 cyclinder in it, but hopefully i'm gonna upgrade the suspension and the engine to a small block. we'll see, don't know yet if I want to restore it or restomod it. hope you guys like, pics at

    yeah, i'm only 26. I say that with the upmost respect for the older guys that have been around the block. i'm used to working on newer cars. i've had minimal experience with carburated cars. thank you for your guys welcome.
