New here, but not a newby
Hello, I live in Cleburne, Texas and have building car since I was 16. My first car was a 1960 chevrolet. My latest are 93 Caprice, 39 Plymouth pickup. I am a police officer on my regular job. I belong to several other forums, 4adrive.com, Hotrodders.com, autobody101.com. My forte is paint and body, and engine building.

Welcome to the forum. You don't see many '39 Plymouth trucks. I have a '39 Dodge, and am using a '39 Plymouth truck grille shell because the Dodge is much uglier.
How about posting some pictures?

Wow, came out really nice. I notice the Plymouth has the turn signal lights on the headlights. Md Dodge of the same year has them up on the cowl, ala early Ford.
Your shop looks very conducive to getting the jobs done. Nice to see one that isn't all crowded with stuff.

Cleburne is in Johnson county, the next county south of Dallas and Fort Worth.
With a daily driver like mine, it's very distinctive. The only time I ever get stopped, is when another LEO wants to talk to me. Johnson County is a small population county and all LEOs know each other. We kinda have this respect for each other, and don't give each other a reason to be pulled over for infractions. Plus, being such a small population, most people know us anyway, so it looks bad to be speeding through the small towns. I find it hard to write someone a citation for any law that I don't observe myself.
I'm just a country cop, laid back and easy going. I've been a cop in the big city, and had all the fun I want. Now it time to take it easy, and relax.
Live and let live is my motto.
