    US Army Veteran new to the automotive hobby from Frederick County, MD. Currently I am the proud owner of a 1970 Ford Maverick running a v8 260 engine from a 1964 Ford Falcon with an automatic C4 transmission. Recently picked up a v8 302 engine from a 1989 Ford Grand Marquis that I am looking to install as a future project. I've been watching the forums for awhile and just wanted to introduce myself. My hope in joining this forum is to learn more about this hobby, get some help, make some connections, and just have some fun.
