Hello from Vegas. I've been wrenching on my own now for 16 years. I started when I was fourteen with a 1953 Chevy pickup and have never looked back. I learned at an early age it's not about the dollars, it's about the desire. Building and fabrication of hot rods has been my life long passion. I have an oppinion and an eye for design, but I am smart enough to know that I don't know it all and thats why I am here. I am currently working on several projects right now and look forward to input from this group. My baby is a 1934 Ford pickup. Sittin next to her is a 1925 Ford Pickup (building for a friend). Once those are out of the garrage I will start on a 1914 police paddy wagon. The wife wants another 53 Chevy pickup for her ride, so I guess the next few years are going to keep the garage pretty busy. I also started sign painting at fourteen. Been an Artist/Industrial Designer ever since. Thats what pays the bills. Last year my partner and I started a couple clothing lines called Flat Black Industrie & Hot Rod Kult that revolve around our love for building &driving traditional hot rods and kustom kulture. I look forward to hearing from you in the future. Thanks, Nate
Welcome to the HAMB. I'll be in your neck of the woods the first week of November for a conference. Anything I should see while I'm there. Doc.
Welcome to the HAMB. Do you and your partner have a shop? I'll also be there next week for the drags and SEMA. Any local things going on that you know of? Not that we'll have much (if any) time. Enjoy the place. Dennis
Thanks guys, No shop (other than garage) for the time being. Just focusing on our personal projects & our clothing line. I am sure all of you know about the HAMB bar-b-que. http://jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=136999&highlight=las+vegas Not sure I'm gonna make it. I would love to meet you all. Thanks for the words. Nate
