    I've put this off too long so here goes: I started driving Crosleys when I was 14 (on the sidewalks of my town). Bought a 40 Ford Tudor Sedan at 16,a mild street custom Plymouth after that,then a black '61 Biscayne coupe with a 348. Been shooting metalflake since 1961. Helped build an altered wheelbase /XS car in 1965. After VietNam,I was part of the Circus Custom Paint shop in Jersey,then moved to L.A. and worked for Ken Cox Race Cars,building Funny Cars and Dragsters. Worked in the Automotive Electronics biz for many years,ended up teaching at a tech school in Orlando,Fl.
    Now,I'm retired and repair/restore/collect vintage American guitars.
