As 99% of you know, I am Jim (the repo man), married to my soulmate Lisa for 14 yrs now. We have a FANTASTIC daughter of 12 who is McKenzie Alexis. We have two Cocker Spaniels that are 1 1/2 yrs old now. Their names are Roller & Rocker the Cocker brothers:D which were named after roller rockers (all our dogs get car or parts names) We also adopted a lab mix named Poncho (for Pontiac).
I joined the Army in 83 and departed Valentines day of 87. Originally from Tampa Florida (GO Buc's). Moved to South Carolina X-mas eve of 91 and now consider SC home.
I inherited my car junkie habits from my father. He raced the 12 hrs of Sebring in the early 50's several times. I have photo's of him in his Jaguar XK 120-c. He also won 1st place overall in the 6 hr Grand Prix in the Sowega SCAA @ Turner AFB in 54:cool:
My 1st car was a 72 Vega:yes:,2nd was a 74 Nova hatchback with a 454 4 spd with juice:eek: at age 16.
While a kid, we were neighbors to "Big Daddy" Don Garlits and remember vividly all the LOUD cars:cool:
Anywho, we are the proud owners of a 65 Nova Longrooooog 400 series. We have had it about 2 years and it is slowly coming along (this is where I thank nightshade for all the metal) and hope to have paint on it by mid May at the latest.
