My love for cars was inspired early on. Dad was a gear-head.

The earliest memories I have of cars include my dad having an MG Midget in '73 or so (in one of the photos). He also had a special Nova with a big block for a short period. I think that was about it for him and interesting cars until I was much older. Prior to that he'd had lots of interesting cars, from drag/muscle cars to sportscars. I remember him mentioning dreaming of owning a Maserati from time to time over the years. The car that he bought once I got a bit older was an '82 Corvette (Corvettes being another car he'd wanted since he was young). Before I was born, he'd make extra money buying cars, fixing them and then selling them. My first car when I was 16 (1986) was a 1965 Chevy Impala 2dr with a 350, 4spd.

Growing up, I had a huge collection of Matchbox and Hotwheels and plenty of other larger toy cars. I remember owning a remote control 935 and an RC Detomasa Pantera.


I was obviously a prodigy, helping at an early age.




You work with what you've got.


I don't remember these, but I had the coolest curtains ever, Grand Prix!
