    hey everyone, thought I would tell everyone about myself before I dug in. My name is Ian and I live in victoria BC. my current hobby is restoring and rodding vintage vespas ( I have a full tune race bike ~140 kph bike, and a couple of close to stockers in primer and flamed flat black) I'm trying to get into the rodding crowd and I'm looking for my first ride. currently looking for a pre 55 pickup (any make) to transform into a flat black rat rod with a chop top and steelies and whites. hope to learn a lot from these pages and I look forward to hooking up with some of the other local metal molestors, looks like there are quite a few van islers around.
    thats it for now
