My name is Kyle and I have been around cars all my life. When it comes to cars, I am not a purist. I don't have to run pre-1965 equipment in an old car to feel legitimate. I am not trying to create a picture of "the way it used to be" with my car. But what I try to do is take the pieces of the diffent eras of hot rodding and customizing that I like and make the car my own. If there is a better way to do it now than then, I will go with the more modern way. I like cars that you can get in and drive. They can cost million bucks but if you can't drive it, it's not worth that to me. I like muscle cars, some imports, some mini-trucks, hot rods, kustoms, and rat rods. Who am I kidding, I like 'em all, some more than others. My wife likes to go to the shows and cruises with me, which is great. She puts up with a lot. I like to work on cars and pinstripe, hang out with my wife and doggie. We go to church and pay our taxes, but I have noticed that my wife doesn't like to go the speed limit. Hmmm... I have a CarDomain site with a lot of pictures and my other cars, 1966 Mustang Fastback and 1966 VW Beetle. http://www.cardomain.com/id/LowHeat And you can see some more pictures of cars and stripes in my photo album on mySpace. http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/ind....viewPicture&friendID=82131064&albumId=902266 Here is my 1949 Chevy Styline 2 door Sedan. It has a 350 with a 700r4. Nova front clip, power steering and brakes, air bags, and a good size stereo. And flame throwers of course. This is not me, it is just the best picture of the flames.
Welcome, L.H.....LOVE the Chevy ! I had one like it in '62.....red oxide primer and it was called "the TRAMP".
