  16. I too am impressed, you must have a very supportive family and an intellectually rich background. Remain humble and you will be a legend when you pass on like Lil' John and others! All the best, Lee.

    I'd never heard of Utah Valley State College before but apparently that school is the cat's ass. Awesome work brother.

    alright, my turn...

    HOW THE BLOODY FUCKING HELL IS THAT TRADITIONAL???

    sure it's a willys. sure is some INCREDIBLE craftsmanship. but...
    willys with IFS?? STREET ROD??

    i really don't get it sometimes. then again, this is how people get scammed. they get so caught up in the flashy part of what's going on that they fail to realize that what's at the core of it all isn't what they are really after.

    no offense kid, great job on that thing. keep working on those skills, there's a lot to develop still if you're at that point already. stick with the older stuff too but this isn't the place for you unless you feel like going with the more simple, cleaner, traditional side of things. street rods suck, ask anyone here ;)

    one more thing to add...all the pics and such seem rather boastful, like you're just showing off what you did. there were quite a few utah hambers at the slc autorama, me included that coulda brought your car up had we cared to. i remember seeing it there and just kinda walked past if after a glance because of the whole STREET ROD thing. we're traditional man...
