Welcome back!

"Shaggy" joined the Club (actually, I think his dad did it) as member# 417. We don't know exactly when, but probably in the early-mid 1980s. So you can get a rough idea of how old he is now!

So I was born in 1985, my dad bought a pile of basket cases and a 165 not too far after, for me. I guess i got signed up earlier than i though, btw the old mags have really good info. I rebuilt the 165 at age 12-13 and fell out of motorcycles awhile after. I played around with vintage hotrods and became a machinist when i left school. I worked on a number of personal vintage hot rod projects and even helped build the 2008 detroit autorama ridler winner "Ferrambo" (biggest street rod award)

I recently took posession of my dad's '47 chief basket case, and dragged over all of the hummer basket cases.

I bought my 1948 Model 125 in 1959 when I was 15. I tried to join then but couldn't find you online.
