My name is Tom and I live about 50 miles east of Denver Colorado. I've been into the Hot/Street Rod gig for 44 years. It all started in Cedar Rapids IA.with a 1-ton model T truck. Being 15 years old I made a real mess out of it. Since then I've gone through; T roadster, 35 Chevy coupe, 53 Chevy 2-door w/a straight axel up front, 72 Plymoth Fury-1 2-door 440 auto. Still in the stable is; 30 Ford coupe,full fender and hood, 32 grill shell, 289 4-speed, 2 1/2" dropped axel, 56 T-Bird, 400m 4-speed, 9" rear, 63 Ford shortbed unibody P/U, 400m C-6 auto, 66 Mercury S-55, 428 4-speed, disk brakes, and 9 Pontiac Trans/Ams. I also have a 40X64 shop that is still unfinished, $$$$$. Don't have any pictures to post at this time.
Its a bump on the side of the road, Byers, pop 1100. This town is so small, rush hour means there is 8 cars on the road at the same time somewhere in town.
