I'm currently working on several vehicles - I'll start from oldest to newest.


1930 Ford Model A Roadster - Highboy hot rod





this is an original 1930 Ford Roadster with the original "banger" 4cy with many speed parts and period mods. I drove this car more than any other car in 2020 (granted I really had nowhere to go)

Goals: continue upgrade, mod, race and enjoy - projects on deck, rear tank and fuel lines, suspension work and interior


1948 Buick Roadmaster Sedanette - 2 door "sedanette" aka fastback





This car was half rear end restored in the late 90s, I've owned it for 15 years - I've recently installed an incredibly rare Edmunds dual intake manifold on to the 320ci straight 8 backed by the first generation Dynaflow transmission which is a single speed cvt style transmission. I drive this car weekly

Goals: rust repair in trunk and complete interior, and solve overheating issues


1940s (exact year unknown) Belly tank lakester project







This is a long term project that I only have a few parts for - I plan to build a Buick straight 8 engine around this ridiculous 6 carb intake manifold. The rendering shows my eventual plans for the vehicle

Goals: to complete this build before I die

1954 Buick Century wagon:





This is the first all steel body wagon ever made by Buick - with only 1400 examples made, it's a rare car and was the top of the line most expensive station wagon offering for GM in 54. This car can be a daily driver and has been at times - its more than capable of highway speeds and is very comfortable - the interior is 100% original.

Goals: rust repair and maintain original drivetrain and interior

2007 Lexus LX470



This is by far the nicest car I have ever own - barring any circumstances outside my control this will be the last modern vehicle I purchase for myself.

goals: maintain and keep clean
