All love talking about that kind of stuff. I just listen and learn as much as I can.

    And I love learning from some of the "old farts" too.

      I guess for me it is kind of an obsession, I am addicted to accelerating at a rapid rate. It gives me something to look forward to when summer comes around, especially with cabin fever. lol.

Is it the looks that you get for having something slightly different than 98% of the rest of the population? Is it the pride of rebuilding/redoing something and making it better? Is it because you like getting your ego stroked by beating the "other guy"?

                    I'd say both of these. It's just great to go out cruizn' and get away from everything. Feels great to have something that you can say "you" did the work on and made it what it is. Awsome to be able to stomp the gas and feel all the power too. I have had alot of influence from family with the whole car scene. Many of my uncles have owned Camaros, GTOs, Mavricks, Mustangs and such. So it all just came naturally to me to be fasinated with muscle cars, or cars in general.

                        For me, the cars I’m into now are a good platform to modify and the last generation to run a carb if you want. The older cars have become so expensive that they’re almost impractical to have as a daily driver. I would like to get into something a bit older because it is what I grew up with.

                          Been workin on cars since high school and it brings me back to a time when things seemed less hectic. When a good time was having a full tank of gas, your girl next to you, and cruisin the local hang outs with friends.
