hey hows it going? This is by far the best site i've come across yet. I've been into hot rods ever since my old man took me to my first car show when I was 5. I've never been a fan of street rods or these high dollar cars. I like functional, driven, traditional hot rods. From what I see you guys do a great job at building and driving these gems. I live in east hartford, ct and for the past 6 years I been going to the rockabilly rumble here in east hartford put on by the road agents. It usually happens in July and its definetly worth checking out some nice traditional rods and kustoms. Im hopefully picking up my first rod project this weekend a 35 dodge coupe body for $250. I have a 72 cuda and a 68 road runner now that i've been working on since I was 15. Any other CT area members? Im gonna need some help with this coupe. I figure with help from my freinds and maybe some of you fellas it could be pretty bad ass. Thanks for letting me join keep up the good work. I'll try to learn as much as I can.

Welcome from down the street in Manchester.
I know my profile says Hartford..but it is just easier.

What Shop are you working for - cause I'm an Appraiser for an insurance company....but don't hold that against me...I'm still a good guy and love Old Cars! And I get along with mostly every shop around.

I'd be interested in hanging/helping out with your project (Free Labor;) :D )
