Hello everyone, I'm Hank and interested in any thing Automotive from the garages we work in to the building of work shops. I currently have a 37 Ford cp. powered by Caddy motor, a Vintage Dirt Modified stock car with a 62 Falcon body which I drive on dirt tracks. I learned a lot from my grand fathers and father. Liked to hang out at garage next door when I was a kid where I learned to use hand tools. I do all my own work from building motors to car bodies and wood working skills. Starting to slow down as I'm over 72 years young. By the way I missed the o in hello on my thread name , old age I guess !!!

Welcome from another PA guy!
I don't live too far away from Boyertown.

What dirt tracks do you run at?
I get to Grandview Speedway about twice a year.

We only run at Grandview on a Sun. when the Enduro cars run. Cost gets to high for race , generally run us $195 per race, and hopefully no parts breakage. Next race on May 19 th. at 1pm

Looks like the Nationals up in Essex via 7 down by killington?...or maybe 91?


My Dad used to run a Roadrunner at Maple Grove, always told stories of putting a 20 on the dash and daring anyone to grab it while going 0-60.....always told him he was full of it!:lol_hitti
