Of course we do!

But mine is because instead of being a motor head in high school, I bought an old '65 KW and did a complete restoration on it.

Since then I've built 5 others from salvages and wrecks.

This is one of my favorites, an old oil field tanker that I made into a 850 hp, 2,000 ft lb. of torque, 130 mph road cruiser...

and my name is Rob so it all seemed appropriate

Nice! I have a lot of admiration for truckers... Long days and nights, away from the family (if they have one), foraging through a lot of danger with all the loonies on the path; all so I can get stuff locally. What a deal!
