About: Well I’m 18 years old and I have loved cars and everything about it as long as I can remember.
I’ve recently started working as a mechanic and I’m loving it, “You’ll never stop learning” as they say.
I left school 1½ year ago which was rather stupid decision.
Cars that interests me are German 6-cyl cars, British sport cars and American muscle cars, and I’m not talking about wimpy Mustangs.
I like big block Mopar’s.
It may have something to do that I’ve grown up with a Challanger which is armed with a stroked 400cui Chrysler engine.
Anyways, I’m terrible at writing about myself so I’ll just quit right here.

Regards

About:
I grew up in Chicago with my dad and two sisters. On the weekends I was with my dad fixing or rebuilding cars. The interest in cars never left me. After joining the Army I lived for 3 yrs in Germany and took every chance I could to go see some of the world famous tracks such as Nurburgring, Hockenheimring, Le Mans etc etc. As I said I loved cars so when I joined the Army I opted for a job as a mechanic. Loved every minute of it and still do. I hope to go back to Germany again so I can test my nerves on Nurburgring in my Subaru. Oh and I am married to a Beautiful Italian rose who I have now known for 24yrs( married 4yrs).
