Well hello everyone my name is Oscar, and I'm from the hometown of bell gardens but now reside in Whittier. I'm pretty much here to meet ppl and get advise on building my 55 ford customline 2 door. I pretty much been into cars my whole life, and pretty much is a fan of all cars. But my loves are rat rods and sleds. I enjoy working on my car and hate to have shops work on my car, my dad has been a mechanic for over 30 years and has though me evrything I know anything from engine work to paint. Everything but electric/ never stuck in my head. Let's see ...uuum I don't belng to any car clubs and kind off keep to myself, I do what I do for me and because I like it not to impress anyone. But would like to associate with other car guys/gals as I am the only one into the kustom kulture/ rockabilly seen in my group of friends. I work fulltime for a school district working with k-5 kids, so yeah cars get me away from it all .
