Playing in my Dad's Model A Sport Coupe and helping him work on all his projects are among my first memories with him as a kid. I was a quick standout on shining up the chrome spokes on his 68 Ranchero! I can still remember the smell of naval jelly mixed with steel wool as I knocked the rust off the chrome. And the sting on my bare fingers!

I was a necessary shade tree mechanic back in the day but my job and duties as a father make it necessary to farm out most of the "heavy lifting" stuff to some folks that have gained my trust over the years. These days, I'm all about parts chasing and handling the smaller detail parts while trying not to lose focus on the bigger picture.
