Just wanted to hi to all the tri five lovers. I've never been on any forum, so this should be fun. I started driving with my first car a 57 Bel Air 2 dr sedan. I have been a car nut my whole life and now that I am retired, I can spend more time doing what I love, playing with my car. I enjoy all older cars, but my passion is the 57. Hope to learn more about what can be done to these great cars from all of you. I'm currently in the process of putting new floors in, and going for the pro touring look. I'm in sunny Florida, Fernandina Beach.

Glad to have you with us Erad! :)

My recommendation for Step1, seeing that you are in Florida, is ... Aircondition the garage... :)

Welcome to the site Erad. It's too bad so many of us have to wait til after retirement to get these cars done. But if you're one who enjoys the building part, it's worth it.

Welcome Erad, and thank you for posting a picture of your car in your very first post! That's encouraging...
Lots of brainpower on the various sub-forums, so don't hesitate to ask for help or just start a progress posting on your build status, and post updates often.

:) Howdy from Texas, Erad! You've come to the right place. What drivetrain do you plan to run in your '57?

Happy Motoring,

Harry
