Hey all, I'm Pat. Mid-30's married internal combustion fanatic with an intrest in lowbrow art, pinstriping, rockabilly, all the fun stuff. Muscle car owner that's had enough of muscle car owning, until I see the opening scene in Dazed and Confused again when the GTO is pulling into the school parking lot rockin' to Aerosmith...yeah that scene there keeps me into my 442. Anyhow, next project has to be low-buck suede big-block 30's roadster of some variety or a 50's pick-up...eye towards Stude's.
Background wise, drafter by schooling, manuf. engineer by trade. Stressed out career in the industrial diesel powertrain industry, cut backs, no spending, 2010 emission standards etc. etc.

Welcome.
There are lots of "locals" on this board. It's also a good place to keep tabs on events around the state you might otherwise not have heard of.

What part of the state are you in?

South East, in Lake City right along the Mississippi.

Small time local events are the most fun, low brow, high octane in Northfield for example.

Welcome from North Texas. The old Stude trucks look good, there are a few old Dodge trucks on here that might change your mind though, and they can still be found for a good price.
