Insert witty statement here.
 
Hey people.
So, a little about me.
I started off as a mechanic in littleton, CO, oh, so many years ago. I finally got bored of making ordinary car run ordinarily, and went to Wyotech. While there, I discovered I'm good at pounding on metal, and I liked making old cars look mean. Worked at several shops, One in Oregon, where I discovered that resto work made me hate life, then several custom shops in Arizona (some of my work can be seen at squeegskustoms.com) and finally ended up back in Denver, working for a glass bottle plant (We make the bottles that Coors goes in to). It doesn't have anything to do with cars, but it pays the bills, and then some, so it was a smart move in the long run. I've pretty much reached the point where work is boring, and I wanted to get back into doing some personal projects. Figured I'd check out some sites, see whats new and exciting in the land of smacking things with hammers, and ended up here.

-Last project I did. '31 with a 4 inch top, with the rear window chopped 2" to help the proportions. Bobbed 8" off rear fenders, and filled in the roof with the bead rolled panel. Hard to tell, but aside from the roof, that's original paint.

-This is what made me realize I like to bang on metal. This is a '32 dash I completed while at Wyotech. Hard to tell from the pic, but there are spaces for all the various gauges along either side, with a large 6" speedo fitting into the mouth. Unfortunately, I no longer have it, as it was stolen by a rather vindictive Ex (Along with everything else I owned at the time. -Never- date crazy.)

Anyway. That's enough about me. In a rather boring nutshell.
