Hello from California
I'm a 56 year old car dude with a passion for classics. Been into cars since I was 12. Bought my first car at 15. 1954 Buick Super for $50. Had tri-year chevys until I got married the first time. Left the car scene but got into Hot Rods in 1999. Built a 32' Ford 3 Window (sold), 65' Bscayne with a 454 and 6 speed (sold), bought a 31' Model A and a 51' Ford Gasser.

Hey man, I'm in Santa Monica.....not that far away. Just curious of you know of affordable media blasting in our neck of the woods? I have a quote from Hot Rods and Custom Stuff but they are in Escondido which isn't very close to me.

I live in Petaluma, not too far from you or Hot August Nights. I doubt my truck will make it there this fall(it has a long way to go, but I will try to be there, and maybe my neighbor will drive his stock 67 vette! Anyhow welcome aboard! Steve." "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

Ken I'll be in Orange in April, and if the offer is good then, I'd love to see your car. My sister - in -law is getting married on the 26th of April, and lives believe it or not in Orange! Steve." "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

Welcome to CHR, Gasser! Another Californian. Wish I could say the same. 11 degrees outside, 19 in my garage. Sure could use some of that California sun right about now. Can't even think ahead to August, brain's too numb. Do have the 1st car show of the season in 2 weeks.
Snow date is Feb 16th.
Anyway, welcome and let's see some photos of your rides. They sound really neat.Bob

Changed the shocks yesterday to OEM spec Monroe, they are still gas shocks. Disappointed that the ride is still very firm, it is not as bad but I was hoping for better. Might have something to do...
