Default Getten back at it

Its always been about cars. My first was a Model A spt. cpe. in '57. A '38 and a '41 then a bunch of '55 chevs. Became a Chevy partsman so I could get discounts on parts. Built an A altered in '65, messed with jeeps. The job put me on the road till '05. I tried to do the car thing but the job (also a car thing) took all my time. Been building a shop for the past year. and now have a home for the equipement I've been collecting for the past ten years. Tools I've been coillecting my whole life. I've taken some classes at the com. college (machinist and tig welding). I've collected several project cars. I've discovered several web sites that are driving me nuts. I don't know how long I'll be able to do this stuff, but I don't think I'll ever run out things to do or things to build. Thanks to the people that make all this possible and thanks to the all of you who participate and push the envelope.

Hi Norm.

Good to have you here, nice intro sounds like a life long 'A man', 1st one in 57 I was 10 then, you did start young.

Love to see some of your cars one day, where's home by the way.

Keep going.

Norm!
Your story sounds real familiar. My first was a '29 Ford roadster. Welcome.
