Dunno if i already replied.. but when I was 15 yrs old. Re Built a 71 swinger 2 door, had it on the road in 2 yrs. Had to help at a hole in the wall garage on the edge of town 'clovis ca. 'working on old American stuff and volvos n Mercedes. How...I talked about my car a lot like most kids.. I went from working at the stereo shop across the parking lot near jimbos and savinos market to working at the garage. L&L motor machine was the place. Leonard was the owner. He was the famous volvo/foreign repair tech in town. I met Art and his son Wayne sheddler along the way and Oldman Dan, Romos, and Jerry Turner of Turners auto wrecking where I ended up getting a lot of my parts from. I walked the yard for hrs at a time. That show junkyard cars or whatever... one episode shows about 1/4 of what it used to be. ..it was amazing... I feel very lucky to have had that opportunity and to know those people.
