    from Denmark

    It's me. Me being Adam, 30, no girlfriend, no cat, no dog, no wife, no family.
    Born in Poland, left, moved to Germany following my dad's roots, after I lived there for 10 years I was offered a job that you don't refuse, and now I find myself here in Denmark and design toys for yer kids.
    Illustrator by trade, sold my soul for an old car long time ago and can not remember when it was.
    Never owned a new car anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter...
    Cars. Yes. Have some.
    Mostly Fords from the 70ies, European stuff, actually I managed to just "add" cars until recently, when I sold one because I ran out of space, a shame, just after it drove away with it's new owner I got a second lift, and now I could stack 'em... Oh well...

    At the end of february I got myself a car that I was drolling for... Forever.
    A 1960 Cadillac that was sittin' outside, not moved whatsoever, with it's windows open for the last 4+ years. Faded paint, rust, sunburned dash, old interior, whitewalls and all, it was perfect!
    I had to have it. I made a deal with the owner, dug it out of dirt and drove it home over 200 miles, with no heat, no wipers, not much floor, no turnsignals, gaspedal stuck on full throttle, and on wet seats in the middle of Scandinavian winter...

    Now I try to get it roadworthy so that it can be moved on actual numberplates, and not just on tryoutstickers, or sneaked in the middle of the night on field roads around the shop, and then I want to race it in September, and after that Kustom! Mild, you don't mess too much with perfection but I'll find somethin'.
    Until then I'll drive it like I stole it, and hell, ain't it the way it is supposed to be?

    What I am here for? To share what the hell is goin' on around here, to share ideas that I have, to show pics, and for moral support.
    I have my own understanding for how what works, and if not, I figure it out, I have enough knowlege about how it was "back then", and enough imagination to trnaslate it into today's standards.
    So if you expect a newbie asking dumbass questions all the time, where do you get this, what is up with that, why is this that way, can you tell me whatever, could you help me with that, then I am happy to dissapoint.

    See you.

    From what I have seen of the Denmark Kustom community, you could not be in better hands. Our kids thank you for all the cool toys. I am glad you have one of your own.
