I`ve been building wagons since 1987 when my dad bought my first one, 79 Ford Fairmont. It was practical because I ride BMX and hauled my friends around. I painted it camoflauge and the license plate said Team War. from then on I customized everything I owned and I did alot of wagons. My biggest achivement was my 59 Dodge Sierra aka The Great Pumpkin. I sold that about 7 years ago to buy my house but built others afterwards. Check out my past rides. Sorry I don`t have all of them, I`m not a take a picture type of guy.
Welcome Lou. I see you're running 2 on the floor with overhead laces on the bike! How's the MPS (Miles per sole) Come on, 'fess up! What's your current plans or projects? Nice wagons.
Current projects are to build up my money so I can get a project. Last years doctor bills killed my toys, I sold my 87 Grand National and 64 Riviera I`m thinking of building a 70s ride. The past few years I`ve been telling everybody that the next few years we`ll see 70s rides start showing, stock and custom. I wouldn`t mind doing a early 70s Mopar or mid 70s GM. The edsel my uncle bought it for my brother but then was handed down to me. We got it at a car show from the original owner. He couldn`t drive so his neighbor drove the car to the show which was 2 streets from his house. The owner walked home to get the title because he forgot it. All original including the recapped biasply tires. Very good condition, mint! I drove it that way for a few months then got sick of it because it wasn`t a cool car at the time. I had alot of wagons, here`s my list from the day I started driving. 79 Ford Fairmont 78 Madza 81 Fairmont 80 Malibu 83 Malibu 61 Chevy Brookwood 58 Brookwood 59 Dodge 66 Nova 68 Coronet 91 Caprice 92 Olds Custom Cruiser 61 Brookwood 93 Roadmaster 58 Brookwood 95 Caprice Wagons I want.... early 50s Chevy 59 Impala 60-61 Plymouth early 60s Chrysler hardtop 62 Chevy (any model) 65-66 Impala early 70s Mopar 75-76 Caprice mid 70s Buick any year Cadillac 94-96 Caprice with Cadillac nose I like big cars but I wouldn`t mind having a Corvair, Vega, and Pacer.
Thanks guys, I feel the love. I do paint and body. I have my own clientel of work. I`m a big BMX collector and restorer. I know it sounds funny but there s a very big following for it. I~m know worldwide for my work on BMX. Here`s some pics. And this is what I used to paint for the past 15 years. I always did old cars for side work. But the BMX has taken over but I still do car occasionally.
welcome aboard...that is the BIGGEST CAR WISH LIST I have ever seem! Sounds like you won't have any problem finding something to tinker with and you are SO in the right place! These guys love to spend money especially when it's someone else's
