Always been into Hot Rods and custom cars just never really had the $$$ to do my own at least not anything really nice. Had a bunch of go fast toys and mud trucks over the years.
Became disabled about 9 years ago sadly but it turned into a bit of a blessing in disguise. 3rd wife and I ended up having a child so I sold my Jeep to get a family friendly vehicle. One toy out the door in favor of a Tahoe. Gas prices hit the roof so Tahoe had to go and got a good deal on a nice car. It was a driver but a really cool one, Dodge Magnum. Met up with some cool people that talked me into going to a show with them. Custom fever too hold again. I've spent a bit of money and time on it and have a nice custom show car that is a driver. Not easy but I take care of her so able to do it... 2 best of shows and numerous 1st and 2nd place trophies.
Have an uncle that goes to shows with us with an amazing Dodge rat so I have changed my mind on building, selling off my custom and getting a driver and sinking the rest into a rat. Would really like to find an old Dodge truck cab, make it into a wrecker and drop a late model Hemi into it. Or maybe a coupe or sedan and turn it into a cop car.
