    Hello all,let's first by saying this...love hot rods,muscle,pro touring etc...but that's not what I do...

    I restore old vw's..but not the usual fluff and buff...more like the real deal I guess,sorta like the muscle car restos that are now happening...but with a different flare. web addy has some of the work you can spec out. www.401restos.com
    got a couple of 'rods onthere I did for a few buddys and such...man I forget how much I miss em. the weather is never a good this as well as the economy out here but we make do. great site with some kick a$$ cars here holy crap!!! happn to se a thread containing Scott Sullivan's name here...kinda weird thought it was fake...I'm actually doing a car that is similar to his cheez whiz '55 for Iannotti who also owns his old nova...yep the 67...well I'm gonna poke around bit and take a gander at all the fantastic rods,street customs and avatars here!!

    thanks much!!

    welcome, some nice bugs you have done. i did a bug up 5 years ago from a 50 dollar burnt/smashed wreck. sold it a year ago and picked up a calendar at frys electronics and there she was, miss september 09, i was tripping out. only difference was a roof rack and they raised it. see you around

    yeah love the cars...but ain't a hippie and DO NOT love the "meaning" and such...started with muscle cars years ago and just wanted something different...as you can seee I hate em stock for myself but that's just fine for the customers. the black and maroon pro mod just made it home yesterday after a years build...she's wuite the hand full...with over 400hp and a stout trans it makes for a killer street car.

    the patina one on the other hand is a low and slow runner...borderline daily driver.

    cheers
