there came upon the land a rodder known as DJ aka 61 bone. He cut his teeth on a 29 sedan using them to chop the top off and installing a dual pot B motor. As he grew in stature and reknown he----- ahh bull Hi I am Dwight Johnson. Been rodding since 1960 and before. Always been a basics guy. Do what i can myself and farming out as little as possible. I like home builts much more than anything else. Built a 27 coupe with a nailhead and a 32 roadster with a 327 in high school.. Since then its been more restoration than rodding. But then these were all high performance cars. My latest is a 61 bonneville 425A convertible about a third done and I just started restoration of a (yuck, I hate to say this) barn fresh chopped channeled 27 T coupe with a 232 studebaker just out of 25 year storage. My pet peeves are: getting caught and whining about it off line stumble with the guys watching "I built this" 1-800 cars even if they are beautiful- don't take credit for someone elses work
