Smile New from the BUCKEYE state.

Okay first of all dont hate on me because I'm from ohio, we have been embarased enough by the state of florida in all aspects of college sports

If newbies from out of town arent welcome sorry ill leave I just have also seen this site alot linked on other forums and you guys seem to have a good mustang crowd and a well put together site

That being, I was recently in tampa with my grandparents helping them look for a condo and I ran into a few car guys and someone told me about the site, I thought I would check it out since we have a similar site here in ohio columbusracing.com so after that being said, I am 25 I am a student/freelance mechanic from columbus ohio I go to THE Ohio State University and other than that I spend time working on my vehicles I curently own two

First

1988 Mustang 5.0 Vert 5 Speed (The Vanilla Ice car)

Its a basic bolt on car with
373s and rear disc brakes, hotchkis upper and lower contorl arms diff girdle, etc, MM full length subframes, bbk long tubes with matching h pipe explorer upper and lower ac delete and tons more im forgetting.





Tons more pics available if need be

Second is a 1968 Buick GS 400

the car looks to be 100% original except for the Mickey Thompson Super Scavanger headers

It has a 1970 stage 1 12 bolt 342 post rear end fully built stage 1 455 and matching th400 tranny here is a pic



anything else you want to know feel free to ask

Thanks

ahh you may take some ribbing on the whole college football thing but what else is new right ... but it won't be from me cause my thing is cars more than sports

that being said your 1968 Buick GS 400 is beautiful

enjoy the site and yes we have a good stang crowd on this site

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

It's OK I'm from Ohio and now live in Tampa. While the cousin kissers may have beat us in sports we still own 90% of their state.
