Hi,
My user name is sixtiesdragracer, but I am Barry to my friends. The user name comes from the fact that I was a drag racer back in the '60's starting in mid '63 and ending in '69. For a year and a half, I ran a '58 Chevy Convertible in G/SA. At mid season, I purchase a '65 Mustang Coupe and ran in L/S until '69. I really enjoyed doing it and made a lot of friends through the sport. I still built models during this time but not like I do now. Some of you may know me from other model boards. I enjoy building drag cars from the '60's and '70's.
Barry

Welcome Aboard Barry... Glad to see you made It!
I've got something a bit different on this forum,
Personal Galleries... Naturally you are free to post
anywhere, but you also have your own personal
gallery. Like a one man show, where people can
check out your builds.
Thank you for coming Barry!
Bill

Thanks Bill. I will try to get some things posted in the near future. Even though I am retired, I seem to be very busy, and that does include time for model building. I just finished the Haydan Proffitt '62 Chevy SS/S drag car. I am also working on a '50 Olds drag car and a replica of the '65 Mustang that I raced back in the mid to late '60's.
Thanks again,
Barry
