hi everyone. im new to the page but far from new to auto forums or autos for that matter. a quick little something about my self. i was raised on 56 chevy's but during the teenage years good luck fining a 56 you can build on the pay you make washing cars at a dealership. so i got into vw's they are old and can really haul butt for failry inexpensive. i didnt forget my roots i own american iron as well but have a major soft spot for vw's. i currently own a fiberglass dunebuggy, a 77 convertible bug, a 91 2 door jetta (kinda rare but not major rare), a 74 baja beetle,a 98 chevy astro awd, a 75 full convertible factory 2wd blazer, a 80 chevy shortbed fleetside pickup, and my kill me before i part with it 69 dodge superbee. and in feburary im picking up my first true hotrod a 36 ford pickup. most of my cars are in project state as i live in an apratment wife the wife and 2 daughters and i rent garages and store a few at my grandmas house (my poor grandma had to go through this with my dad and uncle and now me, she really is the best) im trying to by a house right now so hopefully in the next few months ill be in a house with a nice garage and i can really start tearing into them one at a time. oh yeah im 26 so i have alot to learn and really value most of what the older rodders have to say he!! they've been there and done that, they were the ones that started it and there is alot to be said for that. the main thing i dont totally agree on is i like nice car in satin black and i like "ratrods", i know alot of the olders guys dont and i respect that but i do. i also love a so clean you could eat of the tires show car too. and i know nobody that opened this planned on reading a book so this is the last thing ill say. most people say they have been bitten by the bug i on the other hang had the bug climb in my ear eat my brain and start a colony i am more addicted to automobiles than the worst drug addict is to their drug of choice. I reall do apologize for the long drawn out introduction. so. HI!

Welcome to CHR. Sounds like a nice fleet of cars. I do know what ya mean about lack of room, mine are all spread out over 4 different locations. Seems no matter what size building you have, it's still too small!

Welcome to the forum. I'm like you, have to rent a shop to keep the toys in. Hate writing that check every month, but have no choice. Don't worry about the length of your intro, you had a lot to fill us in on, and did a good job of that.

Post up some pictures for us, we love half finished cars.
