Hi from Orange County, CA
New to the board from the city of Orange, CA. I've been in the Automotive and Motorcycle Industry since 1975. Used to race a Sunbeam Tiger in Autocross back in the 70's followed by a Mercury Capri II that was RokStock prepared. Went in to Rally Car Racing and then Off Road Trucks. After spending all my money to win a Championship I retried from racing. Built a bunch of Hot Rods at my shop, magazine stuff and winners at the Grand National Roadster Show but I'm not much of a lawn chair show kind of guy. I had built a 67 Mustang Trans Am style car for the street in the 80's (long before anyone had heard of Pro Touring) and then won a Car Craft Magazine contest for building a Camaro which I did in the Mark Donohue/Penske style but for the street. Even though I own the Blair's Speed Shop B/Gas drag race Anglia (1968-73 era) I'm more of a left and right turn kind of guy, so now I am preparing a 63 1/2 Falcon Convertible as a Pro Touring/Auto Cross type of street car. Looking forward to seeing what you guys are all building and thrashing on.
