Yeah, I love the fishing too. But I've seen worse winters in Philadelphia where I grew up. Definitely could do without the skeeters though. I've only lived in Wisconsin a little more than 5 years and I love it. My dad grew up here around the Portage Area and I've heard some wild stories and seen pics to prove what I've heard about the winters here. However, I haven't seen anything too bad yet as far as winters go. Must be the whole global warming thing, lol. I love to go to Wyocena to go fishing, especially with my son. We never leave empty handed. It's so much fun trying to reel in the Northerns and Muskies and Large Mouth Bass. You know what I'm talkin' about, lol. I didn't realize you had such a collection of cars. Especially Opels. I love those. I remember a guy back in Philly had a Manta Sport Wagon. Yellow with 2 doors and black stripes. Really kind of sporty for a wagon, lol. Anyway, Nice collection. What are your plans for the Stude? My favorite Stude is the '53 2 door, kind of sporty. I love the lines. I never really cared for the Bullet Nosed Studes of the era until I saw Frankenstude. As a hobby, I enjoy building car models and had one a while back that I built and sold on ebay that I fittingly named "Attistude" a Stude with Attitude. It was that '53 Stude I like so much but for the life of me, can't think of it's name, lol. I think I still have a pic of it on my computer. I'll send my email address to you in a private message and if you like, and if I do still have any pics of it, I would be happy show it off to you. It was one of the best I'd ever built. Talk to you later and Good Luck with all of your rides. I'll check them out in detail later. Just got off from work and have to pull a 12 hour day tomorrow. Lucky me, lol. Helps me pay for my parts though. Cheers!

Welcome to CarDomain! Now there's a car you don't see everyday. I'd say it has a lot of potential. Can't wait to see it finished. Check out my Merc some time.
