    From NorCal.I love choppers and Harleys. A friend and I built my first chopper a couple years ago. He has a 29 Ford, so we would cruise around after wrenchin. A few car shows and hanging out at local spots, really got me into loving the style. I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan, my second deployment with the first to Iraq.*I found this site and others from searching for a nice turn-key hot rod. Hoping to find a 29-32 ford coupe... possibly a truck. I know I definitely want a 302 or bigger, 5-speed and hopefully bagged but that is ideal... I'll settle differently and work on getting it to my standards, depending on the market.Right now I'm just checking out everything, definitely won't be buying until I return next year.

    So, I got back safe a few months ago. I got back on a Thursday afternoon, two days later it was a trip to Weed, Ca to pick up my Chopper and Dyna(yes, I can't live without my bikes). On the way up my buddy(with a 29 ford) asked if I was serious about buying a hot rod. My answer yes. So, we jumped on the internet. A couple of hours later I was the owner of a bad *** truck. I got it off a guy in TX, that bought it from Image 803 Customs in SC. After talking to Bryan at 803 I was sold. So here is The Prius Killer. From South Carolina to Texas and now sitting in SF Bay Area!
