Tim … are you the same Tim Hallock that racer modified stock cars at Orange County in the later 60s , if so you built a 40 ford coupe for Joe Garren and Phil DiGiacomo around 1970 , they ran limited 318 , I did the motors for it , I still talk to Phil Quite often , Pat Deleone drove for us until Phil said , I can wreck the car every week , why do I need you , so he did hope everything is well ….
