Welcome, and thanks for dropping by! This page was created way back in April of '98, but due to AOL changing the web software, its gone through several revisions...with me having to re-do the entire page.

Since you're here, I'll assume you're interested in high-performance vehicles, but first let me tell you about myself. While I enjoy hot-rodding my cars, I owe my life and everything in it to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who gives me the confidence and boldness to face each day knowing that I will someday live eternally with Him.
Romans 3:23, John 3:16, Romans 8:28

2002 Corvette Z06
I picked up this car in Jan. '02. It is an awesome machine. It handles and brakes way beyond my capabilities. Click on the pic below for more pics and modification list.

1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible
I picked up this car in late Nov. '02. It has been restored and is in very good condition. It has a fresh 454 roller motor, and I just added some alum. heads, etc. It runs hard now.

The new generation F-150 Lightning is all that SVT claims it is. I purchased this truck new back in Aug. of '99 and it runs great! Just a few modifications have added to its power and driveability.

This is my wife's Expedition. I just HAD to do something to it, so that it wouldn't look like the thousands of other trucks out there. So, I did my own "Lightning" conversion on it, but no it did not get the Lightning engine.

I still play baseball in a 28+ league here in Dallas. If you've still got the itch, check it out. The competition is pretty good. Most of us played through college and there are a number of ex-pro players, too!
