Default Newbie from Valrico

Hey Guys Emilio here,
I am new to the forum but not cars. Work on older cars like my 73 Duster and 74 Dart Swinger.
My Dart (Green One)
HAs a 360 backed by a 727 Torqueflite. The rearend is an 8 3/4 with 3.23's and suregrip but will soon have 3.55's. Picked it up a few years ago and am currently rebuildin the 360/ lookin for another block. Have done everything to it except the paint and body.
My Duster (One with lots of "Patina") is a Numbers Matching 340 car. Currently doin brakes on it after getting new brakes on my dads charger. then rebuild the motor, sand it down to get loose paint off then clear coat it and drive it as is and maybe go on the power tour in the years to come.
Got some questions about local businesses and learn more info than I already know.
Thanks for lettin me be here
