    Greetings from the armpit of America!!! My name is Ehren, I'm 29 years old and at least 105% of my thought process revolves around cars. My dad practically raised me on Street Rodder magazines and I've been going to car shows and swap meets as far back as I can remember. I have some new school turbo cars right now (the EVO VIII and the Silvia) but I've been working on my '31 Model A coupe for about 5 years (on and off as money and time have allowed.) Of course this car is my true passion. It's a highboy on a boxed model a frame with a 400" pontiac engine and th400 trans. dropped i-beam axle with split 'bones. the rear is a 68 stang with transverse 36 ford leaf spring and ladder bars. It's far enough along that i've managed to drive it up and down the street a few times (no front brakes or doors hahaha). hopefully it will be finished in time to go to the york Pa street rod nationals in 2007. I'd love to take it to the hamb drags that summer as well. I'm recently married but I've been able to keep the project alive and I'll never give it up... basically i'm into cars no matter what they are as long as they are CRAZY fast. But of course the old school rods are #1 on the list... hello to everyone- happy to be a member

    I do not appreciate you east coasters saying you live in the armpit of America when I know for a fact that I live in the official armpit, Central Valley of the Socialist Republic of California and I know about 1,000 rodders whom will back it up................. Anyway Welcome.
