About me and my passion for cars
I'm not too handy under the hood, but I have always had a love for great cars. One side of my family growing up are what turned me on to cars. I had an uncle who had a 1967 911 Porsche Turno, a rebuilt and cherry 49 Ford truck, and a MGA that he built and used to go for some great rides in. I used to go up to the big car show in West Point NE every year as a kid, in one of my friends dad's GTO or 55 Chevy. In high-school I cooked at a really nice restaurant and brew pub, it was a great job. The best part was the Bi-weekly Cruise Night in our parking lot that I helped run in the spring and summer. I love a good demo-derby as well!
My first car
1995 Pontiac Grand Prix, a real looker
My dream car
67 SS Chevelle - black with a white stripe. A black Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano. And I could go for one of those new Tesla Roadsters.
