    Alright thanks a lot man for the info. I will see about that car. I really like the style because I was compairing it with the 49 Merc and they have a ton in common besides the grill and head lights. Also about the 6 volt thing and the 12 volt, I have heard about those batteries and all but what would I put in the 6 and then put in the 12? And yeah about me being a senior member already I do need a car. It's just that I don't have much money at all (only 600 bucks and sacing) and that's all the money I have even in my bank now because I can't get a job or nothing but also I don't wan't to just jump right in on a car because I wan't to be happy with whatever I get and I am really looking for a 49 merc or a 36 or mostly wan't a 37 chevy truck. My dream car is a 49 Merc with a blower and double wides and everything else and then my dream truck is a 37 chevy truck. I might hold off on that 51 though because I showed the pop's today and he didn't care too much for it and he is the one that is going to be loaning me the money so I can't really complain too much with him but he also will have to let me do what I wan't but in a way I also can't. I will see about it though, but on that 66 I wan't to go check that thing out because if I get a hot rod or not I still need a truck. The only thing I would do to the truck is drop the front, nice rims, tires, wider one's on the back but not too wide like slicks or nothing since it will be a every day driver, probably posi differential, dress up kit for the engine, change out the cams, lifters, etc (basically all the essentials for the valves and all.) But yeah I don't really know right now and I don't wan't to get my hopes up or go too far over my head if you know what I mean. I still got all summer to look for a car too so I might wait and look for another 2 or 3 more months until I buy one.

    I lived there about seven years ago. All my extended family still lives there.
