One of the members, Youngster, mentioned this forum to me and suggested I should check it out. I see some familiar names on here from other forums I frequent, and have read some of the threads. It seems like a very good group of people, and I like what I see.
To introduce myself, my name is Don and I live in Ft Myers, Florida. I'm 62, so I have been in this hobby for longer than I care to remember. :welcome: I have twin Sons who are now 37, and we build hot rods together strictly for ourselves. My Son Don has a TP bodied car that we built pretty much everything else for, and I have a Speedway '23 done as a modified, also hand built. My second Son Dan is the true welder/fabricator in the family and is building a '29 Ford roadster pickup. He keeps Don and I on the right path and makes our stuff look pretty.
I also have a '39 Dodge pickup that I am building in the "bobber" style, and I still have my '27 roadster that I have owned for 20 years. I tore it down about 7 years ago for a much needed rebuild and never got back to it.
I am looking forward to participating in this forum and chatting with some of my old friends and lots of new ones. BTW, we are the guys who had the steering arm break on my Son's T bucket. (I saw a thread on that on here) The story made the rounds of all the forums, and luckily no one was hurt or the car damaged.
Here are pictures of my T (black one), my Son's T (blue one) and my other Son's '29. Thanks for inviting me Youngster, and to the rest of you for having me here.

on, Thanks for stopping by and signing up. I just know you and the boys will be a big asset to this forum. As you have read in some of the threads, we almost lost this forum. Now, like a phoenix, she's rising from the ashes, stronger than ever. There's alot of good people here, as I'm sure you'll find out for yourself.
