    I live in metro detroit and have always been fascinated by cars and their designs. Im Planning to be an automotive designer and want to bring the fast streamline look of the cars of the late 50's and early 60's back on the road. I sold my life away when I was 12 years old. I sold all my video games and cut grass for a very long time and bought a 1927 ford model t coupe prodject. I spent a few years collecting parts, my plans were to build a traditional 60's hot rod to have before graduation. Im now a Junior in school and started thinking that i would not be able to meet my deadline for the car in time, So I sold it a few months ago in search of a running and driving chevy from 1958-64. Last sunday I bought a 1963 Chevy Impala 2 door hard top with a little bit of help from my parents for my 16th birthday which is tomorrow.
