Im just turning 29, I have the Rambler in my avatar, and I miss my old rashed GMC truck. Heck, I think I've had the Rambler just as long, maybe a little longer, than I've been on here.
My project that I started when I was 26. 1948 Chevy Fleetline.....that's a work in progress. Doing a body off restoration/modification with intents to have a solid, dependable driver.
19, on to my third project. Drove and sold both a 73 Comet and a 72 C10 during high school. Now i'm building a 47 pontiac(Canadain) Business man's coupe. Going to be a mean street machine/gasser when it's done. I rent a garage for $350 a month because the parents wont let me bring cars home. Plan on buying a driver down at back to the 50's this June.
I'm 20, one car is definitely OT, a '76 Mini and is my driver. The other car is a 1954 Austin Somerset (with four on the tree!) that I am restoring with my dad, we hope to have it on the road before the summer and completed by the end of it. We do have most of the trim, but we have to re do the interior, brakes, paint, and find all the body bolts as the second to last owner took most of them off. Is it an OT car or not? I'm not too sure as Minors seem to be HAMB friendly. Here is a restored one in case any of you are curious
24, Started on 70 chevelle senior year of high school, stock 307/Pg car then, now 383/700R4 12 bolt car. Made a 13.5 pass in the quarter w/ stock rear and street tires. This spring 12 bolt, posi, and drag radials hopefully I'll see high 12's. 53' dodge is latest project-been in the family since 53 and plans in the works
I'm 20, I got my bone stock 1928 model A when I was 15 and drove it all through high school and to college until a month or so ago when the fourbanger threw a rod on me. so I reckin its time for a hopped up banger motor! I've had: 1965 chevy pu (first car) 1971 chevelle 1966 mustang coupe( currently going to be my daily once the motor gets back from the machine shop, 289 4-speed!) I've also been a member of the local Ford model A club since I was 15 and have made friends with alot of cool guys. I have been collecting parts for a traditional 40's style hot rod since and so far have a whole model a chassis put together just from free parts the other guys have given me that they didn't want anymore. I think the only thing I paid for was the frame and front end. 200 for both. lol I pulled the banjo rear end out of the woods. haha still looking for a body though.
Damn near 21 (July), I've been around here for a little bit, posting here and there. Still wrenching on my Falcon. Probably won't have much else until I get my own place, no room for more of my projects with all of dad's hanging around. Moving in to an apartment this fall 2 hours away and have to leave the Falcon home. It's going to be a long couple years. Putting myself through college, full time job, still trying to find time for my hobbies. Life isn't worth living if you don't leave time for some fun, though.
24, Been workin on Old stuff since i was 10, Have had many Cars and trucks Now i just have a 29 Roadster, 65 Chevy Panel Truck and a 69 Satellite, have had T Coupe and 54 Pontiac previously on the road
I'm 23 and bought my Shoebox at the age of 19. Won't go a day without me thinking about what my next step will be on the car.
I am way over 30 but all my bikes, and cars have kept me feelin around 20....just got popped for doin a fatty burnout in a parking lot.
Sweet car. You're only 14? I'm impressed! Seeing that you're a Senior Member on here and you can't even drive (well.. legally), you're going at a good pace. I didn't even get into cars as well as you until I was 17-ish.
I'm 25 got a 54 chevy 150 more door been working on it last couple months it's coming together. All I really got left is rebuild the 235 n slide it back in n be ready to roll. Hope I can get it goin soon I'm try to make it to viva las vegas!
I"m 23 from Australia, and this is my current one, 28 tudor, plan is to see if i can keep it real low using transverse leafs both front and rear.
Im 29, and this 53 is the first old metal I've owned. Shes a rust bucket in every sense of the phrase. Needs a lot, but I wouldnt get rid of it for anything.
I turned 28 in jan. I started working on cars when i was 21. Started my shop here when I was 24, been building ever since. Here's some of the stuff iv'e worked on:
Well, does 30 count?? I have two classics---one of them isn't HAMB material but the other is a 1954 Roadmaster 2d HT. So far the 322 is built by H&H in La Crescenta and is amazing---I just secured a rebuilt Dynaflow (all Buick---everyone lectured me on going to a Chev tranny but it just gets under my skin) so long low and (sorta) slow is the goal. Now its just putting things together... I've attached a picture of the Buick the way I bought her, and the engine. Not much else of interest to show at this point!
I am 27 I traded a 64 impala for it. Me an a buddy of mine bagged it an did all the Sheetmetal work!!
Just turned 26 today.. Ive been into motorcycles for a while but I am starting my first rod project. 53 Chevy 3100 w/ a 71 nova sub frame, SBC 350. And my other two loves.. 01 Road King Classic built to look like a 50s Chevy And a 77' XS650 Bobber.
I'm 28. When I was 22 I bought a 60 jeep cj5 with a Buick 231. Sold it to afford grad school. Now that I'm more established, for the past year I've been building a 56 Chevy 3600 big window truck with mustang ii, 4 link, chevy 383, 700r4, and ford 9". With this build I'm focusing on fabrication, welding, and expanding my skill set from just fixing to fabricating.
