    Guys,
    Just a quick intro! Slightly over 40, married with two daughters at 5 and 9, been into choppers and stuff (still are) but moving towards 4 wheels cos its nice to bring the whole family on trips! I'm not that knowledgeable about cars but I'm hoping to learn from u lot!! Currently riding a Thunderbird -62 and the plan is to do a mild custom as a rolling mod.. I also have an Austin-Healey which is a basket case.. I dunno what to do with it.. maybe an insane gasser :)

    Cheers/ Jonas

    Thanks Guys!! Yep, I'm lookin forward to learning the trade from the pros :) I really dig traditional rods and customs so this will be right up my alley.

    Finnrodder - I'm actially half Finnish. My dad's from Wasa. Unfortunately, I can't really speak any Finnish but I can do a fair amount of cursing in the beloved language.. I prolly learned when my old man was giving me a rub down for some mischief! Comes in handy when the car is fighting back :)

    Cheers/ Jonas
     
  7. I spent two - separate - lovely weeks in southern Sweden, back in the mid-90's - around Uppsala. Beautiful country!

    Yeah,thats useful skill,cursing in finnish language.
    Well,i dont understand much swedish.Someone slept on the swedish classes 20 yrs ago..
    But i know some cursing in swedish:D
    I am 100% finn,but my sister moved to Sweden at last year.She went to study there.She is a kind of academic gypsy,so i guess she'll move to some another country when the school is over.
