New Shop Owner and Collector to Forum

[route55]

Hi Everyone! My name is Keith Kodet and I'm new here. I've been collecting old cars, trucks, and even busses for all of my adult life. As for Chevy Trucks, I own a 1953 three window shortbed that is bone stock and I recently purchased a 1959 one ton panel that is also stock. Both are in need of resto, and I plan to put the panel together as my daily driver and tow rig for my shop. I recently purchased a 1940's gas station that I am in the process of fixing up. I plan to open a vintage auto and off-road store by summer of 2012. It is called Route 55 Vintage Auto & Off-Road, and is located in Marine City, Michigan.

I also own a small fleet of other antique vehicles, and am contantly tinkering. My 59 panel is one of my current prioritys, and thats how I found this site. Looks like a fun place to be!
