New guy from upstate NY

[michaels]

Hi, Michael from upstate NY. Interested in cars of all kinds, but the hot rods have always been my favorite. Current project is a '36 five window Ford. Still have my first car, got it about 1982, its a 1954 Buick Roadmaster 2 door hardtop. Also like designing hot rods on paper, (its cheaper that way but the ride isn't as good) Cool forum, hope to get and give good ideas here.

Catskill, just over the bridge, what do you drive and are there any good rod clubs/groups around here (Catskill/Chatham area?)

Yeah, not far. There is a club that has a show each year in Cairo. Don't know anything about it though. I will be starting a 35 pickup rat rod this spring.

I live in an odd spot, we always get a few inches less than the towns around us. We got about 4" of wet heavy snow. Snowblowed it with my John Deere walk behind, vintage 80's.
