Somebody said something about an interduction on this page. I don't know exactly what you want but here it goes. Live in central Wisconsin. Looking for a Model A sedan. Wife and kids. Race stock car weekly so have mechanical background. Love the traditional hotrods. I don't know much about the lifestyle( isn't much of it up here), but I like the cars.Saw Bob Bleeds car at the Good-Guys show and now I want it. I'm just going to hang around here and learn from you guys, if you don't mind. If you need anymore info ask away.
Ps. Did I say I was looking for a Model A sedan project, any stage of completion.

Welcome new guy. Hey I never been the first to do this before.Everyone else must be working.
You a young guy or an old fart. Someone is going to ask that I'm sure. I got grandkids my self.
You found a good place to learn, but ya better be thick skinned, or at least that's what everyone says.
A little about the lifestyle, as seen by the Porknbeaner. If you get Bleeds car, that's what you'll have is Bleeds car. Build your own Bro. It aint nuthin' but nuts'n'bolts. But when your done they'll be turned just the way you like 'em.
Keep an eye on the classifieds, there are good deals all the time. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Wilkommen,
If you like the "Bleed Style" you should PM him about a Sedan Body on a roller he might sell! The thing is "Super Cherry" in black patina! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
He's located outside of Waukesha.
