    And in Los Angeles no less .

    I've been a member here since 2004 (IIRC) .

    Been a Mechanic since the 1960's , always loved Babbit Pounders & InLiner engines .

    Had a shop for many years , did Road Service , Used Car Lot and Junkyard Mechanic .

    Now close to retirement , looking to thin the herd and fix up my hopefully last shop truck .

    I don't own any modern vehicles because if I have to feed and fix it , then I might as well run what I prefer .

    I already know a fair few HAMB members , they told me to introduce my self here .

    Questions to come .

    -Nate (edited because my sig. didn't show up)

  9. I love my chevy power too! But I have also had to complicate my life by putting a 1962 Cadillac 390 in my 36 Ford coupe! Welcome to the HAMB.
