lets try that again ..

Mine is no mystery. When I first got on forums it was mainly diesel truck stuff. So I'm on other forums as Dieselwrencher. I didn't think that really fit on a hot rod site, so I chose my oldest favorite pain in the ass.

You are correct sir! No diesel burner in him......... Although, it's came close to getting one. But I'm too far vested in the Hemi to change my mind. Besides, I want one gas burner I guess.

That is exactly what I tell friends who suggest I sell my T Bucket and BMW daily driver for a compact japanese pregnant roll skate with a 1300 engine trying to drive an auto to save on fuel costs. I reply everytime telling them to pull their heads in as the arabs are still making oil and there is still fossil fuel to be burnt so no way would I be doing that. On a side note, I live not far from one of NZ's oldest race circuits and last weekend the wind was blowing the right way while the muscle cars had a club meeting, now the neighbours get a bit annoyed listening to the noise but me, I love it all day long. The sound of a V8 under full pedal heading down the back straight can't be bettered.

Exactly. I can't replace the roar of my old 472 I had, or the several 383's and 388s. Being in the diesel scene for so long, the sound just isn't the same.

Any more willing to expose themselves?

I'm a New Zealander "kiwi" and guess I dream to much about cars etc :-) nothing exciting.

Everything is a result of a dream or a thought . Dream Big and Often then act on it! Can you really dream too much about cars? Thanks for posting up and joining in. Dig the name BTW.

Well mine should be no problem its my name

Or and Alias ?

Mine is a long story that goes back to birth! I had an Italian Dad who wanted to name me Stephano. Mom said no, that she liked Steven. Long of it Dad compromised with Stevens. Well the name has haunted me for over 50 years now. Back in my marine Biology days, and former roommate laughed at Stevens and came up with the nick name Stove one night while drinking in the Florida keys. It evolved into stovens and stuck with my marine bio friends. When I joined up here I was tired and just typed it in, never figuring I'd be on here 7 years later. On other truck forums I had a little more energy and came up with StevoF1 which just blends another nick name with my truck.

I struggled long and hard over my name, was called many names in my youth and most of them would fail the mods test here. So the choice just first name and last name initial.

Good stuff here guys... I for one enjoy knowing the origin of your names. I look at some of locations your from and wonder what part of the world your in. It forces me to do a search so Im getting my geography lessons at the same time. Thanks for joining in on this. Issaquah looks like a great place to be a hot Rodder, Im digging the old shell gas station and trolly!
