Hello all, My name is Kevin and I am a Manufacuring Engineer. I actually design propellers and do design work for military ship builders. Enough of the boring stuff, I found this cool site while looking for a project to buy. I have been helping my dad work on his cars since I was just a young whipper snapper and now its my turn. I got out of cars for a while and did the school thing, got married had children..............now finally I got the ok (Wife) to buy a project and work on MY car with my dad and my two young boys. I had to look for something with a back seat as I have 3 young kids. My dads last project was a 31 victoria and I really liked the looks of that, so the race was on to find a 31 vicky thats affordable. I just needed a body and I was going to put it on 32 rails. Well, I found a complete car that needs help (good thing dad is familiar with rusty, dented, roll-over accident, catching on fire car bodies). Now dad really has his work cut out for him and I have a lot of work too.......but now I am thinking about changing gears to a 33/34 sedan, it has more room for the kids. A vicky will fit all of us know but I probably won't finish this thing for 3-4 years and the kids will all be bigger. Any ways thanks for all the great threads, I enjoy learning so I will be ghosting most of the time. Kevin.
