Hello from Central New York

[racingdude24]

Hi everyone, I'm Kyle from central New York (near Auburn for those nearby)!

I just joined and am looking forward to utilizing this great resource as I work through my restoration. I am currently in the early stages of restoring my family's 67 Belvedere dirt oval race car. It has sat for decades in an unfinished state, so I am doing both a restoration and completing the original build. I've added a few pictures of the car in its current state and the original car (the one I have was being built while that one was being raced).

I look forward to interacting with everyone!

Welcome from nearby.
That's a big project. Hope it goes well.

Welcome aboard. If you can get it looking like # 76 there, you will have done a great job. Good luck.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I am going to start a thread on the projects forum to keep as a record of progress and to give more information on the current state of the car. Didn't want to hijack this and turn it into a project thread

I actually picked up a super clean 67 Belvedere 4 door from Texas a couple weeks ago that is going to be my donor car. I will definitely reach out if I need anything though!

Yep, that's my end goal. I have an uncle who has been hand lettering race cars since the early 80's so I'm hoping to have him do it since he was around when this car was first being built.
