I'm 24 from Southern California. I'm a college student majoring in mechanical engineering at Cal Poly Pomona. Since I can remember I've been obsessed with cars and bikes and going fast or looking good on both of them. I've raced BMX and jumped dirt ever since I could ride. I have just recently got into the cruising and customizing scene.
Car wise I started off with a 1953 Chevrolet pick-up, then a 1971 VW beetle. Both of those were before graduating high school. Then after I got into BMW's and bikes. All in all I've been modding, tweaking, painting, fixing, racing since I can remember. It's in my blood. I can't own anything without putting my own personal spin on it somehow.
I actually stumbled across the bike modding scene when I won a Kustom Kruiser Roadster at a bar before Christmas last year in a raffle. I had it for a bit but never used it. I was actually planning on selling it and as I was looking for stock photos of the bike itself I stumbled across pictures of slammed, stretched cruisers. As I was studying them I realized a lot of them were based around the exact frame I had sitting in my garage. Thats when it started! I will post pics up in the build section here soon. I've got the bike all torn down and the frame painted. Im now in the process of parting the parts I dont need out and getting the new parts ordered and put on.
Just wanted to say Hi and introduce myself.
