I am a product of my environment, my father saw it all go down in L.A. Calif. (born in 42, Newhaul Calif.) he has some amazing. pictures and stories you wouldn't believe.1st drag race I attended I was still in a car seat (1969?? car seat??) 1st time 'wrench turning' I was 12 (removed exhaust system off me fathers 68 Camaro) I have been hooked (cursed) ever since. My dream ride would have to be any 1929 sedan (ford).
