classic cars

Ever since I was a kid, I've had a passion for just about anything with an engine and wheels. In fact, if not for my passion for architecture, I likely would have pursued automotive restoration as an alternate career. When I was young, I had multiple family members with classic cars, and their passion quickly grew on me. Today, I enjoy going to all kinds of auto races, going to car shows with friends and family, and maintaining vehicles of all shapes and sizes

My first car was previously my grandfather's, and he took tremendous care of it. As the ownership was passed onto me, I felt obligated to maintain its excellent condition. So, when I totaled it at the age of 18, I decided to restore it myself. Although uninjured, I was mortified after the accident, and I knew that I would do whatever necessary to restore it.

With the help of some friends and family, we were able to get it back to its former glory. As an 18-year-old with very little money in my first year of college, I came home any chance I had and spent hours on end fixing my truck. This was an amazing learning experience, and today, I enjoy taking it to car shows with my parents and godparents.

Above are some images of the classic cars in my family, various projects I've worked on, different races and car shows that I've been to, and my truck's restoration progress pictures.
