About Me I'm into Muscle Cars,IHRA Drag Racing,Car Shows, Montgomery County His/Hers Car Club, guitars, partying with my friends and family when I'm not away from home working. My biggest interest is playing with cars. I'm a member and liscensed with the IHRA. I've got a 17 yr old son who has taken an interest in "old school" cars. It's alot of fun having him participate in my car projects, etc. I see alot of me in him. I guess I never out grew my passion for hot rod's. I love the muscle car era. We also have a 73 Dodge Charger that we're starting on soon, as well as doing a total frame up restoration on my son's 83' Ford Ranger 4x4.

General Vehicle Comments I saved this car from a slow death as it was sitting in an apartment complex collecting dust for 2 years. Remarkably with a fresh battery and some gas it fired right up and I drove it home. It got a fresh tune up and ran OK for a while, but , soon after the cam got a flat lobe. Well, at this point I began my re-birth of the car. The motor is now up to my expectations, Not the fastest on the street I'm sure, but, havent been beat by a ford yet.The body work is starting soon. We call this car the "Hell Camino".

Future Plans The body work is starting soon, plans are to convert the doors to "suicide doors", smooth the tailgate, rear roll pan, and put an SS Monte Carlo front grill/bumper assembly on. The paint is going to be a candy apple red with black SS stripes.
