Greetings from Pittsburgholdschooler, here in Peesborgh, Pa. I'm a 46 yo lifelong car guy, born into the car biz..Dad owned a small repair shop and did all the local police towing...The first ride he bought me was a '55 Murray Royal DeLuxe pedal car...followed by a Desoto Firemite mini car(go cart) this was followed by a brace of '57 Chevys, a '69 camaro(my first frame off), and few other odd balls...late in '79, a buddy got a roller '30 A cpe and a pile of parts...when he saw the car..he promptly gave it to me" get that thing outta here!" BTW, I still have it...and no..its not done!! I screwed together a few T-buckets, a couple '40s coupes , and a couple hearses , just for good measure. I took over from Dad in the late '80s , got out of the towing business in '99 and have been doing street rod and custom work since then..Congestive heart failure reared its head in 03 , and I'm just now getting back on my feet....Now looking at a new shop/ home, so things are looking up.
I'm here to hang out, help where I can, and talk Hot rods! Thanks for having me. If your in the Pittsburgh Area, PM me and we'll hook up for lunch or a couple brews.....:D
