Hi, I am from central Pennsylvania and my familys hotrod was a 71 dunebuggy my wife and I built back in 1995. Since we are getting older and the buggy was getting smaller... we decided to sell our toy and build a full size gm car. Since novas and camaros are crazy with the pricing and a corvette will not fit the kids, I came across a 1982 with a small block chevy and a th350 for a great price. A young kid owned it and the story goes it was a trade on a truck he had. So of course I was very very careful on how much I was willing to spend. But she has great oil pressure and runs really good plus the trans is definitely not stock. 2 flowmasters that are 3inches and a posi rear round it out. She has a few 442 parts I will windup getting rid of like the rally dash and door panels. The interior needs the most love and I know the drag car setup she has now has gotta go.
We did just buy the 1st biggest part towards the pro touring . New 17x8 rims at Carlisle yesterday. Now I gotta buy some new treads.
So thats my story. Also if any guys here from central pa need any machining or welding/bbody work I am always willing to help. I will post pics soon. Thanks!

Ah central PA! I used to live in Shippensburg, work in Mechanicsburg and right up 11 from Carlisle. Now I'm back in eastern PA near Philly. Great place to live.

Thanks again, funny most of these pa towns or cities I have live in at one time or another. I grew up in Chester. But I gotta admit I love where I live now.
