It dawns on me that I should mention the purpose of this project, as many here may be interested. I have decided to participate in the 2004 La Carrera Panamericana race from the Guatamalean border of Mexico all the way to Texas. Those not familiar with the race can learn more here:
www.lacarrera.com . I plan to enter a '63 Comet in the historic class, but the one I have access to is an (unrestored) 6 cyl car. I plan to go over to discs, a 5 speed, and will certainly have a number of questions along the way. Any one intersted can reach me at my new email: ironmachineus@yahoo.com. Thanks!
