I really think my most happy times and challenging were back when I ran my Classic car repair buisness. It was word of mouth advertisiting. I also remember how proud my mentor was when I completed someone's project and got it running. I built mainly Pontiac's and lots of GTO's. I fixed them all. Over that time I did several other brands. My fortie into Buicks was fun. I owned 3 Grand Sports. I built 2 of them and both were really fun. The GS 350 is still my Favorite. With the swaybars and new bushings I could go around corners like a slot car. I built a Ford Cobrajet 428 car. It was the most challenging of them all. It took days to install the engine and the headers.

If I could go back to doing that and the thrill of hunting down the parts and building the cars. I would in a heartbeat. Maybe if I win the lottery I'll do it again. All I need is a pole barn, concret floor and tools!
