Welcome to the site, I'm wrenching on a short box myself though yours makes me want to burn mine!! That's some pretty awesome looking fabrication skills. I have to admit that you given me all kinds of new inspiration for my project!

Just had five minutes before I leave with the fam. I will add more later but I wanted to test out pictures with photbucket. If I can figure that out, pictures will tell the whole story of an introduction. Thanks, Rhys.
I live in Sarnia, for now (may have to relocate with work this year to somewhere else in Ontario), an awesome spot in South Western Ontario. Five minutes from the U.S. border for all my parts and projects. I love all aspects of the build from start to finish. I tend to build them rather than drive them.
166slingshot, the 1986 GMC truck was a fun build. All my cars have family history behind them. I was around this truck from the day it was purchased. I "back halfed" and shortened it down to a short bed.
The current project is the Merc. I started with a 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII that I drove for a primary vehicle for twelve years (it was getting tired). I wanted a 1949 to 1951 Merc so the VIII became the platform for the build. I will start a build thread to show the progress. Thanks, Rhys.
Picture of me with my buddies Merc to put a face to the name. Hope to see some Ontario Rodders out and about this summer. I'm pretty shy, you'll have to be gentle with me, Rhys.
