About this site

Owner, Author - Red

Living in Orlando, Florida, I've spent 62 adventurous years turning wrenches, cruising highways, and speaking my mind—loud and clear.

As a proud American patriot and die-hard Republican, I believe in good old-fashioned values: freedom, hard work, family, and of course, an unwavering love for this great country. Nothing gets my motor running quite like conversations about liberty and horsepower.

My life's passion revolves around vintage cars. There's just something magical about restoring a classic piece of Americana.

I'm a mechanic, taking pride into cars that others might overlook. When my hands aren't covered in grease, they're usually tapping away at the keyboard, writing freelance articles for some of the finest car magazines in the nation. Sharing stories about restoration, road trips, and automotive history is my way of keeping the classic car culture alive and thriving. God bless America!
