I’m just a guy who likes cars. My parents drove me home from the hospital in a ‘64 Cadillac Sedan de Ville. I have early memories of cruising around in my babysitter’s ‘65 Mustang. My dad had a ‘71 BMW 1600 which was totaled in a wreck (I was in the back seat with my brother). My dad replaced the Bimmer with a ‘74 FIAT 124 coupe, then a ‘75 Saab 99. I learned to drive in my mom’s ‘77 Cadillac Coupe de Ville, learned to drive stick in my dad’s ‘82 Ferrari 308 (heavy clutch, but nearly impossible to stall out). My high school autoshop teacher gave me the Mopar bug, and I’ve owned various old Mopars ever since. I also love boxy RWD Volvos, and some day hope to own a ‘74 Alfa Romeo GTV. And maybe a 2008 Mustang Bullitt…

I’ve been a car nut since around the time I learned how to talk. In one of my earliest childhood memories, I’m at this toy store in Hawaii begging my grandma for a Snoopy Dragster when I’m supposed to be picking out a Strawberry Shortcake doll. My weakness is oddball cars with lots of personality, the ones the collectors tend to overlook. I love the idea of building something completely unique out of a hulk that any rational person would’ve long since sent to the crusher. Consequently, my rides include a restored and modded ‘82 Ford Escort GT and a daily-driven ‘81 AMC Eagle.

I’ve owned 10 cars in my 8 years of driving…does that tell you a little bit about me? I remember sitting in my best buddy’s parent’s garage staring at his parents classic 1965 Corvette Roadster and just drooling all over my Jolt soda can. Since then I knew I was hooked. My first car was a 1990 Ford Taurus in Copper River salmon…man was it ugly, but it got the job done. After that the tuner bug bit me when I bought my 93 Civic EX Coupe and started modding it like crazy. From there I’ve bounced around between JDM and DTM cars and have yet to own my first 4WD truck. The list looks a little like this, 90 Ford Taurus, 93 Civic EX, 86 Mazda B2200, 98 Eclipse GST, 98 Integra GSR, 97 Honda Del Sol, 97 Ford Explorer, 99 Civic LX Coupe, 2007 Acura RSX and a 2008 VW GTI. I hope to bring you a little of the JDM and DTM spin in the car industry.

Ryan is too lazy to write anything for this.
