Well had a voice mail at home last night. A person I know on here said that I never did my intro. With a quick search I guess he is right - SO SORRY!!! That is a sin around here. I thought I did it last December when I regesitered. Here it goes.
I am 32 years old live in Council Bluffs, IA with my wife and 2 sons(4 and 3). I have been involved with cars my whole life - Dad had lots of 4x4 stuff growing up and hot rod boats. When I was 14 bought my first car, 70 Chevelle. Later on I built a 1981 Malibu that has been in a couple of magazine - Big brakes, blown small block - it is a blast to drive. I still have it today. I know these are too new to talk about here.
I have been wanting to build an open car for quite some time. So I have been lurking and learning about early stuff. Bought- stole actually - a 26 Touring last winter and I am slowly gathering parts. I just want to build a fun, reliable primered old tub we can run around with...this will just lead to the next project anyway. Also working on about 50 other little things - mini bike, motorcycle, building a bigger garage etc.
Other than that I am living the American dream in this 10x10 cell - cublicle I mean.

Minibike? You sure you aren't from Texas? Just kidding. Looks like a fun Tub.

Is the name a cigar referrence?

72 and sunny all the time, eh? Well, I live about 5 miles from you [I suppose] and it's definetely not 72 or sunny here. Guess I'll have to move over to the Iowegia side of the river....
We got a few other C.B. guys here. Carkiller and flyinJ7 hang around here from time to time. Also, TicToc and Binder will drop in here occasionally...
Welcome..........The T looks interesting and promising.

Welcome Troy ,Haven't seen you for awhile. As far as the intro goes ,I felt real lucky no-one called me a dumb A$$.
It looks like I may have a project bought and Jim is looking at a T bucket/lakesteer/whatever. You know he sold the Rude Stude?
