Hi all. My name is Greg, my brother Kelly and I have recently purchased a neglected 72 Cherokee 180 to restore. I have about 20 hours toward my license, when I was in high school, and he has not started training yet.Just for a little background info although we are not A&P's we have been mechanics our whole lives. We started racing at as kids working from Sprint karts through Dwarf cars, Mod lights, V8 sprints, asphalt, and dirt Late models. We built and sold Mod lights from from the jig up. We are both currently maintenance mechanics​ in a specialty plastics chemical company working primarily as electrical & instrumentation mechanics, but with specialty train as both E&I and Mech fields. We have friends locally who are A&P's that will be helping with the rebuild. Sorry for the long first post, I'm sure we'll have plenty of questions. I'll try to keep up with our progress, and welcome all comments​ suggestions
