    Was raised around cars. My dad raced the old dirt modifieds in the late 50's and early 60's. He also ran a 41 Willys Gasser. My mom swears that until I was about 6 I thought the National Anthem was the "Racing Song". I grew up 15 minutes from MoKan Dragway.

    Bought my first car 48 Plymouth Business Coupe when I was 14 drove the hell out of that car, finally spun a bearing so out went the 6 and in went a healthy 383. I have also had a 62 Impala 2 door hard top with a 327, 73 Cuda with a 383. Then I got married we had kids and cars were history for a while.

    Once the kids were grown bought another 48 Plymouth coupe and built a hot rod 57 model 230 flathead and put it in front of a 53 model R10 Overdrive. Drove it for about 8 years before selling it. When I started getting the itch again my wife convinced me I really didn't have time to build anything with my travel schedule for work.

    So I bought my current 37 Plymouth coupe with 360 Magnum and 727. Have been making minor upgrades every since.
