Hello all fellow gearheads. lets get all of this newbie crap out of the way! My name is Tom & I've been lurking for some time now & figured it was time to intro. myself. I have been modifying cars & trucks since the early 60's, under the opinion that the manufactures make vehicles as cheap as they can & there ain't a one of em that knows what I like! I'm not much of a talker & don't have alot to say, but maybe I can tap into my past experience to help some of you folks with your projects. I currently have (5) projects & a driver, but I don't seem to be getting much done on any of them, for the usual reasons.(no money,no time,no place to work on them) Plus I live in a old house that always seems to need something before the projects. I went to the goodguys Waukesha on fri. & the Cheaters show on sat. I was in Hot Rod heaven! Met some hambers at both events.Can't wait till the Hunnert Car Pileup, went last year & had a blast! Anyway I just thought that I would check in. I live in south central WI, So if you want to bench race or need a hand on anything maybe I can help. Hasta la bye,bye Tom
