General > Newbie Intros
Hey I made it on here...again

Hey all,
I was registered at one point but mainly lurked but plan to be a bit more active. :) I suck at online intros and the fact that I know a lot of you in "real life" it seems really odd. I don't come from a car family but I married into one ;) We have more cars than we have time or money and they are all in various stages of decay. construction or reconstruction.
We have my wife's '36 Ford 5 window tail dragger. A '56 Ford ragtop that was a friend of my wife's family. She rode around in it when she was 8 years old and so it is like a part of the family. We also have a '58 Olds 2 dr sedan, I am working on getting floors in hope to have it back together next year sometime. Our most recent acquisition is a '56 Chevy Panel that I just put a 3spd OD and am trying to make it look right. Been doing some shake down runs with it so I hope to be camping in the back at the Run 81. Lastly I have 2 roadster project a 1930 RPU that my wife bought me when we were dating. It was started never saw the road and needs to be reworked. The last is a 1927 Model T with a 1929 A backhalf graphed to it. The car is an old hot rod and was a cover car in Jan 1959 RODBUILDER & CUSTOMIZER. It also was at the 1958 Oakland Roadster show. I bought the car without the history known and with the help of many folks have gotten a lot more information. I want to redo the car back with as many authentic details as I can and also drive it. Attached in the car as it appeared on the cover in 1959.
