Pardon the title, it was just a song i was listening to when I was writing this.
I want to start off just introducing myself and then I will ask for a little guidance. You dont have to say anything on it if you don't want to, but it would be appreciated; esspecially if you have gone through the same situation.
Hello, my name is Jake I am 18 going on 19 in September. I live in a decent sized city in the decent state of Michigan called Grand Rapids, its ok here. There are car gatherings every so often and you can see them cruising or dragg'n in certain areas. My love for cars has been passed to me from my dad. As a kid we used to go to a local hot dog joint where a whole lot of about 20-30 cars would show up every friday night. I slowly grew to love them. But the truth is that it started before that with my dads cars including such cars as mustangs, grand national, camaro, t-bird....just to name a few. But i personally have always been most fond of the '50s era. I absolutley just love the lines, i love the feeling i get of what it is possible to make them into. The bug has bitten me and has been floating in my stomach and wants out.....in other words I want one of my own now.
Now for the suck part of the post.....I currently have a girlfreind(that doesn't suck it is what she does) that doesn't want me to own a older car. She wants me to buy a p.o.s and drive that. I told her many times that many old cars start as a p.o.s and get turned into something beautiful. She still is stubburn, she really want me to get something like a cavalier.........(shivers). Can someone please help?
Thank you,
I look forward to learning from you all.
