Hey guys, Im Tim from Centennial, CO. My son (KustmAce) signed me up on this forum a while ago but I never got a chance to post until now so I thought I would introduce myself first.
Most of the local CO guys have probably seen my truck around at the cruises. I drive a tan 1947 Studebaker M-5 pickup with more traditional accesories than I can count. After having bought an abandoned project, I have done all the work myself, including the 305 smallblock Chevy swap. Only thing original is the body, which sits on top of a 72 Chevelle front clip, with a 55 Chevy rear end and a 350 trans.
I'm trying to go for a traditional shop truck look, but I try to do it differently than everyone else.
Ive been a car guy all my life, and I have put as much of what I know into my son's tiny head so he can keep the tradition alive as well. I also do pen and ink drawings, and as soon as I can get it scanned or photographed, Ill put up in the Friday Art Show.
I look forward to learning a lot here, and mingling with all the other anti-boyd-types around here.
Tim
