    What is your addicition?

    Is it reeshaping metal into the ultimate custom?

    Is it making some jalopy into a fear inducing speed demon?


    or is it some other mechanical fasination???


    is it musical??


    If it none of the above , it must be chemical.

    some times it is more than one!!!





    I have found that I have always loved hotrods. I just need more.

    This summer I have found that customs do get me excited ( I love moving metal ) by helping on a fellow road burners' shoebox.


    I must say that I had more enjoyment from driving my untested and not legal coupe on a road trip for a couple hundred miles than I thought I would.
    I just dont enjoy endangering my family ( my wife went along with us) It was great !! My wife ( as we are entering the interstate after a three block drive) says "How fast have you takin this thing? I say " 30 or 40" . She says how fast are we going now?? I look at the other cars and say " 60 -70" AND HANG ON!!!



    Is there a subs***ute for speed or chemical addictions???

    SPEED!!!
    I went 122 mph in my 89 grand prix after I hit a light pole I'd call that a speed addiction!
    Yes I am a ***** for doing it but no one else was on the road at the time.

    I have the same sick addiction since I was a kid.....I like to tear the household appliances apart. Problem was, sometimes I couldn't get them back together and would hide them under my bed.

    Talk about an allowance drain. I still like to tear things apart......and go fast......ask the Highway Patrol about that one or two, okay it was three.:D

    Hot Rod, cars and people

    Helping Rodders, do rodding

    Building what i can, the grin you get when you get it done, how cool is that.

    Love open roads, bends and straights alike, roads which i dont know, getting to know them and beat them to death.

    Getting a car to handle as best we can, with the old technology.

    Beer is an addiction too, had to be off of it for a year for health reasons, but boy its back and cool it is too. Nice mellowing feeling, just contentment.

    Sorry im waffleing, ill go now.

    1932 Fords....... :D

    Ever since I rode in one when I was in grade school........I wanted one. The man up the street had one ( 1957 or so ) ......and would give me a ride to school some mornings when it was real cold and I was waiting on the school bus. He was a Policeman and back then it was safe to ride with a neighbor ....

    His 32 coupe had a big OHV and a couple carbs.....it was loud, rough riding and I loved it.

    :D

    So...don't ask Brandy about the "appliances" under her bed. Got it! Oh even better you need help with them...lol...Sorry you walked right into that one...:D

    Hmmm...my addiction has continually evolved in a rotating cycle since I was a kid. When I finally got my license it took me about 2 years to lose it because of speeding tickets...so what's that tell ya. Sorta p***ed that stage now though. Any more if it's got great lines it's ok by me...even if it doesn't scare the **** out of me goin' down the road. The need to alter has never left my system, I just alter to a different end now.
