About me and my passion for cars

Dated a farm Girl and married her.
Her Dad got me interested in mechanics, actually I had no choice but to help him on his farm and with that came mechanical work to fix farm implements almost daily.
I learned a little bit of everything working on that farm.

I really wanted a muscle car at a young age and finally scored a 74 valiant but quickly realized that I could not afford to restore a car at my young age with too many other life responsibilities as money was tight.

I told my young Wife that I would have gray hair by the time I could finally afford to restore my dream Mopar which is the one you see here, and yes, I finally have gray hair.

My first car

1974 Plymouth Valiant 318, A-904.

Car I wish I still had

My 85 Dodge Ram pickup, and my 71 dart swinger that I bought to cruize in while building the cuda.

My dream car

The one I built.
