    I've here for over 2 yrs. looking and reading. I decided I'd step up and do the intro deal. I've been involved with hot rods most all my life. My family owned a service station /tire shop and liquor store in western Kansas, which worked out well during the high school years! Free gas for the cheer leaders , and coors from grandmas store.
    Today, I still drag race, build hot rods, and motorcycles. I'm currently building a 35 chevy panel delivery. I have a collection of old cars, memorbila, and serice station leftovers dating back to the post war era when my grandad had his 1st skelly service station. Someday when I get older I'm going to finish my 55,56 & 57 nomads for my sons. I've owned them since around 1968-69, I'm 53 now so I have time yet I think.
    Traditional hot rods is what we did,..there wasn't anything else. Race it on friday night, fix it on saturday!
    If I don't fit in say so................

    As soon as I figure out HOW to make them fit the size limit I will. My computer skills are far less than my crafting skills thats why I've stayed in the background.
