Hi,
Just signed up, and was almost a milestone! Member 9,999.
I've been reading on here for a while (when I get a bit of spare time here at work) and have decided to finally sign up.
I have just sold my previous project, so am in the initial planning stages of my first rod, a '37 Ford vert. I have an uncle who has been a rodder for ever and I've always wanted one of my own. I got hooked on the '37 when I found a t-shirt with one on about 12 years ago!
I always thought one would be out of my reach, or impossible to find. I hadn't picked up a hot rod mag for years and didn't know how big the industry had actually become, and what was available.
If anyone knows of any good books about building hot rods that could help me out in these early stages that would be great. I don't plan on getting started on this project for a while yet, got to do a lot of reading first and come up with a game plan.
Cheers, Daniel.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
