Hey Dan, kudos on the fun topic! I love seeing what others do for fun. That's some amazing stuff, folks.

I'm into cars as well, mostly 60's & early 70's Chevy muscle cars, also like drag racing them. Also music, drums and guitar, and have wanted forever to build a guitar but can't find the time! Radio controlled planes, photography, astronomy, and traveling in my RV. Unfortunately with Georgia now having the highest gas prices in the country (!!!) the RV sits unused. :cry:
I'll try to post a couple pics...

1970 Chevelle restored by my brother and I:

1967 Chevelle waiting for restoration:

Me, playing (you guessed it) \"Play That Funky Music White Boy\". No, not my real hair... it's never that \"calm\". :wink:

Nice Chevelles Jeremy! My first car(way back in High School) was a '68 Chevelle El Camino w/327. I would love to rebuild(OVERHAUL!) one someday...............

Thanks Brian. I've always been a fool for Chevelles... someday I hope to get a '67 convertible. Definitely hang on to your El Camino! These days it's better to have an asset like that than cash, because our \"cash\" isn't worth too much anymore. :wink:

Next on my wish list is a 1963 Falcon El Ranchero...and I know where one is for $700! The wife won't let me get it though until I get the '34 pickup finished and sell the '27 roadster. I guess she has a point since the garage is full and we have to park in the driveway.

Yeah Cameron! That's what I'm talkin' about!

I got addicted to riding ATVs on sand dunes a few years ago at the Little Sahara in Oklahoma. A couple of years ago I got a CR125 dirt bike and put a paddle tire on the back and went back to the Little Sahara with it. It stormed! With the 10' metal whip on the back of the bike, I was a lightning rod. The folks there said that was the first rain they had had in forever. Just my luck...

Is that you in the driver's seat Cameron? Do you build those buggies?

Oh I hate to bring back this memory... This is what I had to sell to start my business a few years ago. I needed the money and the garage. I still have the '96 but the '72 had to go. 67K original miles and all original numbers matching except paint and top. I had to post after seeing the other Chevelles.
