It all started back in 1963 when I got my first car. At 13 it was heaven. It was a 27 t roadster with a full race flathead in it. My brother in law helped me redo it into a great drivable car, and I drove it all thru high school. There has always been some kind of project in my garage since then. When one is ready to drive it seems like it is time to start another. I will always be indebted to my brother in law and my dad for teaching me how to build and maintain anything I can dream up. Oh yeah and also my wife of 40 years, she is the one I sold my roadster for. I needed money for her engagement ring and figured I would always be able to build another hot rod, but would not find another like her. Kinda like finding the perfect 32 in the perverable barn. It is good to be here. I am working on a 1933 chevy 4 door sedan with my middle son right now.
