I moved to the U.S. in 2005 and bought my first Chevy truck a 1988 1/2 ton. Started cleaning it up and fixing it and I got bitten by the bug. I then moved on to 60-66 chevy trucks and from there I have built 4 with a good friend of mine. After the 3rd one we decided it was about time we started a car club in the area. So we founded the Westside Road relics along with another gearhead from our area. Each of us with knowledge but the will and determination to build and work on the older models. Between us now we have number of diff makes and models. We do not look for any type of financial gain, we only do it for the love of working on the cars/trucks. We have also taken on a young apprentice. He is a 15 year old and he has a love for old skool rat rods. He has begun pinstriping and he is getting better by the day. Another member recommended that I join here after buying the 55 Poncho. He mentioned there were alot of guys on here with similar rides. So here I am....
