    Hey, long time lurker (haha), posted for the first time last night asking for help identifing some cars. Someone mentioned I should come here and introduce myself, which I probably should, so here I am...

    Born and raised in AZ. Been into cars my whole life, now 27 years old, my stepdad ran an auto shop and I started working there when I was 10, basically grew up there. This is where I got my knowledge of cars. Eventually I went off to college to be a mechanical engineer, graduated and now I'm working for an aerospace company where I'm a field engineer and loving it. A couple years ago my step dad passed away from a heart attack at the young age of 58 :( since then I have also been running his shop. Over the years he has collected many cool cars (40-60 not sure) and parts that I have inherited and I plan on building may of them, and I'm sure eventually I'll sell some to fund the other projects since there are so many of them.

    I'm currently in the process of purchasing my first home, It has a 3 car garage, and I plan on building a 4 car garage in the backyard one day :D I'm into old cars and new cars, the technology today is amazing, but the old school cars are hard to beat for fun. I also 4-wheel, ride quads, hit up the lakes, a firearm fanatic, and a hockey guy (which is wierd since I'm from az haha)

    Anyway, any questions feel free to ask.

    Nate
