    New to Club Hot Rod

     



    I'm enjoying reading the posts here and looking forward to having time to build a rod for myself. I've been involved in quite a few projects for others.

    While I can do all phases of vehicle restoration and customizing, my specialty is wiring. There isn't much I haven't tackled and I enjoy drawing clear wiring diagrams for my fellow rodders. My contributions here will largely focus on things electrical and simplifying how to do it right.

    At present my hotrod is a '99 Buell X-1 Lightning. I find it the best of both worlds, Harley power & sound yet stops & steers like a crotch rocket.

    I am presently building a new garage and will be moving into it in late December. As a first project, I am considering installing a late model V8 into my 4-banger 2000 Chevrolet S-10, using a Camaro donor car. I'll narrow the rear frame rails and rearend, go to 4 wheel discs. It's a complicated electronics swap, one I have studied on some.

    My dream street rod: track roadster, big block, nose drive blower, manual trans, low, wide, black monochromed, very little chrome, lake pipes, amazing AC.

    Thanks for the membership!

    Jon: From the contributions you made to other forums, it is apparent you know your stuff wiring-wise, and even after you left the comments from other members echoed that feeling.

    I also have seen you display a great degree of personal integrity and strength when needed, so I know you will be a real asset to this forum. We get a lot of wiring questions, so you will fit right in.

    As I told you in our email exchanges, this forum is full of really great, friendly people, and I know you will find a home here.

    I'm so happy you are doing more than lurking. Welcome.

    Welcome to the forum. As vehicle wiring is quite a challenge for many, your expertise will be a welcome addition.

    On Don's recommendation, I'll consider you the GO-TO guy on wiring...
