Ok, I guess it's my turn. I am like most of you, grew up with a family that modified anything that could take a weld or you could turn a wrench on, so I won't bore you with those details. I have a shop in Mesa,AZ and we do everything from rat rods to show cars, NO IMPORTS (well, I have a 1930 Austin sedan delivery I'm doing, that count as an import?).I am 38 years old. Have 2 daughters, both born with grease in their veins. My 13 year old is even building herself (with daddys help) a pro street 1954 Nash Metro. My daily driver is a 1923 C-cab with a B&M blown 302 Ford. OMG, a Ford in a Ford?:eek: In the next year we plan on moving a bit east to Lake Havasu City. If you need any advice or help problem solving, feel free to email me. The advice is free and worth what you paid for it. I will of course plan on thinning out my collection over the next year (easier to sell it then move) and will list some stuff here (not the crap, but more rod oriented). If you can't find a shop willing to cut you a small order (even one off) of a part or bracket, feel free to ask, I never say worse then "no". My wife April (thats her in my profile pic) runs all of the upholstery here. We have been married 17 years. If you don't have a strong good woman behind you, go find one. We travel to many national events. I usually go for the shows/cruises, as I hate going as a vender. I do old school (even have a huge English wheel) as well as new school (cnc mill and cnc plasma cutter) metalworking. As you can see, I'm also LONG WINDED, which means if you stop by my house or shop, we will bench race for HOURS. Can't think of anything else, but if you want more, don't hesitate to ask. Let me leave you with one bit of advice,,,,,,,,, If you have to tell people it's cool, it isn't. Cool defines its self.
