Ok,,,one more time,,and maybee it'll stay put.
My real name is Alex, I live in Mission B.C. that's the west coast of Canada to those who don't know,,,and in the Fraser Valley.
It's cold here right now,,,snow everywhere.
I'm coming up on 50 in a couple of years,,and i'm digging my heels in all the way, but it doesn't seem to be helping ( a warning to all you younger guy's here)
At the present Moment i have 11 vehicle's parked around and about my house,,
62 Thunderbird,,,64 Thunderbird,,50 Studebaker bulletnose,,,75 Caddy,,77 Mercedes,,,84 Bronco 4X4,,89 Ford F150,,81 Subaru Brat,,,63 VW bug,,,62 T-bird parts car,,and a Tandem axle trailer.
This is my 1950 Studebaker Champion bulletnose.

And this is my 1962 Thunderbird:
And my 64 Thunderbird,,,soon to be my son's project:



I've been pulling wrenches for as long as i can remember,,,and i've alway's had a soft spot for the older car's,,,,something about all that chrome does it for me.( although i do have lot's of experience with British cars,,and Motorbike's)
My son is about to follow in my footsteps,and take over the 64 birds rebuild,,so it's gonna be fun working along with him,,,showing him the rope's.
My background is in Heavy Duty Mechanics,,also Autobody and paint,,Powder coating,,Computer's,,Hydraulic's,,Pneumatic's,,.
I got back into Collecting old car's about 5 year's ago,,and i havent looked back since,,but i'm sure some of my neighbours would wish i had.
I guess you could call me a Jack of all trades,,,in a good way.
I got bored really easy
But i'm alway's there to help out when i can,,,and i'm glad to be amongst such stellar company.

Thanks Bill.
I just realized that there was some kind of a power outage on the server.
Thanks for the heads up.
