About 1971’s Garage
About me and my passion for cars
FROM A VERY YOUNG AGE I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN IN LOVE WITH CARS. BORN IN BROOKLYN, NEW YORK BUT RAISED OUT IN VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA. THE VALLEY IN THE 50'S, 60'S & 70'S WAS A HOT BED FOR SO CAL HOT RODS AND MUSCLE CARS. FELL HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH MUSCLE CARS IN THE 60'S. HAD MY SHARE OF THEM.
DO ENJOY MY LASER RS TURBO ( JAPAN'S MUSCLE?) ALL THROUGH MY LIFE I HAVE HAD CARS, ( 2 BIKES ), THAT I HAVE MODIFIED TO SOME EXTENT. SOME HEAVY SOME MODERATE. I BELIEVE WORKING ON THEM IS AS ENJOYABLE AS DRIVING THEM. THE DREAMING, VISIONING, HOPING, WANTING, STRIVING, ANTICIPATING,
PLANNING & DOING LEAD UP TO THE FINAL RESULTS. I HAVE ALWAYS DONE IT TO PLEASE ME, AFTER ALL IT IS MY RIDE! ALWAYS GOOD TO KNOW THAT OTHERS LIKE THE END RESULTS. HUMAN INTERACTION IS A WONDERFUL THING & THIS SITE IS A GREAT PLACE TO EXPLORE FOR A CAR GUY OR GAL! HOT RODS & CLASSICS ARE COOL, BUT MUSCLE CARS RULE!!!!!!
My first car
1956 CROWN VICTORIA TWO DOOR, RED AND BLACK, INTERIOR RED BLACK WITH SILVER INLAY. 312 WITH FOUR BARREL.
Car I wish I still had
MY 57 CHEVY WITH A 64 CORVETTE DRIVE TRAIN..350 FI. DODGE POLARA 500 FRONT SEATS AND CONSOLE, CUSTOM WHEELS, TIRES & PAINT.
My dream car
1969 SHELBY GT 500. HOWEVER I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY 1971 MACH 1 SHOW CAR AND DRIVER!
Car clubs I’m in
NOT REALLY A CLUB KIND OF GUY. NOTHING WRONG WITH CLUBS, THINK THEIR GREAT, JUST NOT FOR ME.
