    Been messing with muscle cars since 1990 when I was 15 years old and since then I have had about 19 late 60's/early 70's cars. I really like driving these old cars and have driven as much as 30k miles in one year. My current truck is a '72 model GMC and I drive it daily 80mi round trip to work and I do it without the luxuries such as A/C, automatic tranny, power windows, power locks, power steering, power brakes and with out cup holders.

    I am now wanting to get an early model to mess with and have been reading a lot of Street Rodder and Rod & Custom. I have been learning some of the various models and I would like to get a '28-'32 Ford Tudor Body and start from there. I have to have one with room for 3 so my 7 year old son can get in on the fun. He has already claimed the '72 as his when he turns 16.

    Here are a couple of my past projects

    Welcome from someone who grew up in Tulsa. I graduated from Will Rogers High in '74, and the guy who dated the girl who lived next door had an orange 'Cuda like that...wonder if it could be the same car?

    You've had some nice rides. Hope you find the perfect sedan for your hot rod project

    Welcome from Illinois. I have always liked the AMX cars, and of course I have always liked the Mopars. Nice cars. Shawn

    Hmmm...I must have missed you if you drove one of those three cars posted above. Glad you had a good time. You are welcome to anyof our events we have. Let me know if you are ever out this way.

    The cars above have all been sold, they were some of my past projects. I am looking for my next project, not sure exactly what it will be.
    We were in my daily beater, a "Petty Blue" '72 GMC truck that I have had for a couple of years now.
