I'm not a fan of custom work by and large, but I like old chopped Mercs and some mods on the 30s and 40s cars and trucks.
Tri five chevys, (trucks and cars), should be a protected species.
The design engineers from about 1950 untill the early 1970s were a different breed. Back then you could spot a car and actully tell who made it and what year it was. Now they all look alike. I miss the good old days.
If I was any more parallel with you on that I'd say we were riding the same rail . I stopped trying to know what car is what a long time ago. But I can see a tiny blip of anything from about '70 back and identify it. I'm even like that with trucks after the GMT400s. If I need one and get one I guess I'll learn some. That would be out of need not want. I actually felt that way when I ordered my '92, but that truck became this cowboy's beloved pony
