Hello,
I live in Utah with my family, wife, daughter (18) and son (12). I am a mechanic and have been working on my 65 Chevy II for 2 years now. I have been checking out the rides on this site for a while and thought I would introduce myself, show my car and perhaps get advice on my build.
This is my pride and joy car, I have plans on installing a solid front axle and a kind of vintage appearance. I have learned alot about these cars and hope to learn alot more. I put it together with a floor jack in my driveway. The engine was assembled by a friend if mine who owns a shop in Ogden, Utah. He also built my Ford 9" rear. His website is www.fasttimesmotorsports.com a really valuable friend who has a dyno, deals in forced induction, fabrication, rat rods, engine building and lots of knowledge on these cars. I just wanted to give credit where it is due. Everything else I have done on my spare time.
I thought Buzzbomb would be a cool name for it, I work on military aircraft and have always loved vintage hot rods and WWII fighter aircraft.
I plan on taking it to the local dragstrip here in hope to set a spark in my son, who has shown alot of promise on his motorcycles and go carts.
Please take the time to check out my pictures say hello if you like. I am up for suggestions or questions as long as it is constructive. I see alot of really nice cars on here, I know my car needs alot more work but it sure has come a long way. It is a blast to drive and is very quick. Just got my new drivetrain in and working out bugs but runs great. The photos need updating, but you get the idea. I will keep current on where I am at. Thanks for checking it out and very happy to be here!
Current Vehicles:
2002 GMC Sierra 4x4 (mine)
1995 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 (wifes)
1992 BMW 325i Convertible (wifes)
1989 Suzuki Swift GTi (my gas saver hotrod beater)
2009 Kawasaki Vulcan Custom (mine)
1965 Chevy II sedan (my baby)
