Hey, all-
I am not very computer-savy (or savy at all for that matter), but I am slowly learning about the whole "forum" deal. I have always been into cars, and especialy Hot Rods. I am 26 years old and live in Hermiston Or, but I was raised in Portland. My current projects include : 1928 Model "A" pheaton body (looking for a stock chassis) ,1932 Ford 2 door sedan ( getting the top filled and patches installed by a friend of mine whe is one of the best metal guys ive seen, and who wanted a Model "A" truck I had)it will be fenderless,sitting low, and built mid sixties style. 1950 Willys Jeepster(all stock, will get a 12 volt conversion, new whitewalls, and driven) 1968 Mustang fastback (with a 428scj and a horid fake velvet button tuck job) and last but not least a 1926 Roadster pickup "T" that is for sale on the board. I also play with guns and real estate, and I make 1926-27 roadster & rp bodys in fiberglass . Yea, I know "steel is real", etc. ect. ect. If I could make new metal bodies I would, but this way I can sell a new "T" body for $750 and get more people involved in out great hobby. plus "glass is fast". Take care everyone, sorry about the novel, Rock on!!!

Howza Brutha-

Anutha person from up here...I love it.

When I packed my bags and headed this a way, I was lectured on all of the dead ends I would have looking for old cars up here...

WRONG.

I have scored more old tin than I ever did in my beloved Denver.

I shoulda known, really. My slEdsel was originally from here in Portland!

Welcome aboard see you in April at the swap meet maybe?

I'm pretty much into everything, hot rods and customs. I have a '49 dodge wayfarer with a 440 and I'm building a '53 chevy wagon. I love the older stuff too, just don't have one right now.
