47 Tudor Guy

I've been foolin with cars since the early 80's. I fell in love with cars in early teen years while building models and reading Car Craft. I took auto shop in Hs. then went to Lincoln Tech in Indy for one year. Moved on to college an managed a rod shop in Marquette Mi. After graduation I worked as a mechanic then service manager. Moved on to engineering and worked in the auto industry for 10 years as an engineer, several of those years working for Tom Hoover (aka Mr Hemi himself.).

I'm a gear head at heart. I've got a garage, and basement full of car parts. There are even parts in my bedroom closet.. and the good news is, my wife doesn't mind! She is very supportive of my car insanity.






I have been in love with ALL cars for a long time. Prefer 60's Mopars and 30's & 40's Fords. Restored a 31 Tudor Sedan, but sold it to start this 47 Tudor street rod.

I pretty much do everything on the cars. I love fabrication. I also do body & paint, all the mechanical, most of my own upholstery, etc. I have worked hard to learn all levels and areas of auto restoration & & street/hot rodding.

I've joined here becuase of the 47. Insight, perspective, opinions, and ideas are ALWAYS welcome with me!
