Hmmm...good question....Im not sure what catagory you posted that I fall in. With the rods Ive built over the many years, I dont think one of them ever was finished the way I first envisioned it at the start. I dont build "show" cars just safe, fast, dependable hot rods. I guess my biggest fault is that I dont seem to have the imagination gene. So my builds tend to be more of the norm and really dont stand out much when in a crowd of other rods. But most of my time spent in my rod is in public with not many (if any) other rods around so of course its gonna be a stand out then. Take my T coupe, I started out really wanting a "rat rod". But now a little over a year later, I am turned off by them. So now its looking like more of a 60's style hot rod. At first I was gonna chop the crap outta it, but now that TALL roof is starting go grow on me.....As in everything else I do, I prefer to do as much as I possibly can myself. Mostly so I can say, "yeah, I built it" but also cause Im a cheapskate!!.....I figure I can screw it up three times before getting it right and still have paid less then having it done professionally.

I also build my cars for me....while I do enjoy the compliments, I could care less if someone else dosnt like it....

Now what was the question again????.....
