About Me

I was born in Slovakia (Eastern Europe) in 1979 and moved to the USA with my family in 1987. I have lived in Massachusetts since then. Roslindale, Andover, Haverhill & Tyngsboro is just an incomplete list. In the not too distant future I might be moving to southern New Hampshire with my gorgeous wife Julie. We were married on Sept. 1st 2007 in the Boston Public Gardens. We are expecting a baby in March 2008, I also have a daughter, four year old Sofia, with my ex-girlfriend. She's an awsome little girl, her laughter and fantastic attitude is contageous.
As far as my interests they revolve around reading about cars, racing cars, working on cars, Demolition Derbys, Drag Racing, Drawing/designing cars & car shows. Seriously. I'm pretty obsessed. I just sold my 1977 Cadillac Coupe deVille & bought a beater 1976 Buick with a 455 and my "nice" classic is a 1959 Buick LeSabre 2-door sedan. Classic General Motors cars are the only worldly possessions I value almost as much as my life.I'm a bit of a class clown, enthusiastic & energetic.***** ***** Free MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider
On June 15th 2007 I was in Tulsa, Oklahoma to witness the excavation of the 1957 time capsule with a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere "Sport Coupe" Hardtop inside. Three friends and I drove 4300 miles to see it and I even made it on the news. Check it out:

My Interests

I love all types of music and love traveling. Other than that I have one hobby: cars. Drawing, racing, crashing, fixing & obsessing over cars, especially classic GM iron form the 1960s. Recently I sold my 377 horsepower, ZZZ-350 powered 1968 Camaro and bought a 1964 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday. It's a four door (pillarless) hardtop and is powered by a 335 horsepower 394cu.in. Ultra High Compression Rocket V8.& now for some eye candy: MY OLDSMOBILE:

I'd like to meet:

Just here for friends & networking. Hopefully I can reconnect with a few of the friends from Bradford College & Suffolk University that have moved to opposite sides of the country. Like I mentioned in my profile I am very much in love with my beautiful wife Julie but I guess you can never have too many friends. I would like to network in the classic car restoration community. Like minded Automotive fanatics always seem to get along with me. Always open to meeting new friends who can appreciate going to the Dragway & carshows. Also if it was somehow possible I'd love to meet some of the people responsible for those fantastic classic cars I'mso obsessed with... like Henry Leyland, Harley Earl & Bill Mitchell just to name three, but that's a little impossible since they've all passed on.

Music:

I like almost everything imaginable. Very open minded. For instance in my car right now I have CDs by the following artists:Beatles, Rob Zombie, U2, Madonna, Johnny Cash, Depeche Mode, DJ Sammy, Led Zeppelin, Moby, Coldplay, Black Eyed Peas, Metallica, Europe, Nazareth, Juno Reactor & Eagles just to name the stuff off the top of my head. Also, that German Techno from the "Super Troopers" Soudtrack

Movies:

Monty Python's Holy Grail, Billy Maddison, Austin Powers, Anchorman, Dumb & Dumber, Happy Gilmore, Joe Dirt, Big Fish, The Island, Casino, GoodFellas, The Godfather, Terminator & Matrix trilogies, The Ring, The Others, House of 1000 Corpses, Forest Gump, American Graffity, Derailed, Crash, City of Angels, 50 First Dates, Boondock Saints, Star Wars...oh and Julie likes to watch crazy bootleg French films, so often times I find myself watxhing those with her on long summer nights.

Here is one of myself doing one last quick burnout session with the Camaro just beore I sold it. The carb. needed a rebuild, which is why it stalls out towards the end of the video and hesitates starting.

Television:

Speed Channel (although I'm not a NASCAR fan) Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Classic SNL, Mad TV, CSI: Las Vegas, Rome, The Sopranos... also the car nut classics: Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazzard, CHiPs A-Team etc.

Books:

Favorite book of all time: "Sphere" by Michael Crichton I also love both of Roald Dahl's autobiographies: "Boy" & "Going Solo"

Heroes:

Harley Earl & Bill Mitchell. The two most important men in the Automotive world. Automotive progress & styling owes so much to them. I've always wanted to be an automotive designer myself. Also my departed Grandfather Josef who was one of the most patient, kind & selfless people that I've ever known. I wish I was a lot more like him.
