    Cool Just Saying "Hi"

     



    Hi,

    I am new to the forum, just wanted to drop a line and get to know a few people. The car in the Avatar is the family Nomad that I grew up on (Dad will probably be buried in it).

    I grew up fortunate enough to be around people like Grumpy and Smokey (in his Phase IV days) via my Pops being a gear head, although I was too young to realize the legends I was irritating as a kid.

    I have two boys (fraternal twins, hence the screen name), one of which is special needs, but fortunately for me and his brother- loves loud cars.

    I sold my Chevy II to build an A-V8 with them as a family project. I have built several 50-70's era cars, but never an old roadster (exclusing a Fad-T, but that is a different story). I hope I can gain from the experience of any old schoolers out there that will assist.

    So, my favorite flavor is water, favorite color is clear, I like long walks of short piers........not sure there is much else I can say other than "Hi" again and I hope to make some friends here.

    Thanks!

    TE

    Welcome. Having two sons myself, well not really myself since my wife was also involved, I can really appreciate you doing this with your boys. I love that! Otherwise, when you fall off that short pier please yell "Jeronimo" or some other more politically correct expression if you prefer, so you don't end up falling on top of me. Jump in, the water's perfect.

    Very cool associations you make regarding some legendary hot rodders, like Grumpy. I recall going to local strips and being annoyed that some guy named Bill Jenkins from the western suburbs was doing so much better than us city kids. But we all lived to discover his Chevy secrets...not that we need them to beat the Fords
