Hung around newstands as a kid in the mid '50's. Captured (and carried away) by the creativity in So.Cal.. I never recovered. Lifes direction set,never looked back. Turned hobby into business.alot of custom painting,body work. Morphed into collision repair to pay bills.

Brief active relationship with drag racing (C/gas Willys, T/Fuel dragster). I remain a big fan.
Collision repair business in the Seattle area (40 + years). Sold in 04'.
Now retired and restoring shop El Camino.new Texan (DFW) and lovin it. My sons have moved down to Texas as well. We're going to do a project together. Something that i've been brooding over since the late 80's. As most of you now know it's Junior's '50 Ford coupe.
Now it's the recreation of Jesse Lopez's '41 Ford coupe. I keep gettin' sucked into these things.
