Default NEW but not completely clueless

Hello everyone,

I hope to gain some valuable knowledge and share what I can. I am an Architect by profession, but that doesn't mean that I have money. (I'm married) I am not the most mechanically savvy person, but I have a lot of experience with 12v systems. I try to do all my own repairs and modifications if possible. I have formally worked in many audio shops over the years and competed and won in many audio venues. (Mostly SQ) I have moved on from that and I am trying to slowly build up my 2000 Z28 to a respectable level. I look forward to meeting new people and I promise to use the "Search Function" before I ask a question.

Cheers

Thank you, I hope I got all my info updated finally. I signed up using my phone and that was not easy over a phone.

We do need special problems worked out for us from time to time. Very complicated flashing details mostly. Send me your business info to williamcarllewis@hotmail.com We are between business names and I am not sure if the william@at-homes.com still works. We quit paying for the domain name. lol We are slowly moving into a company called Modular Design Group. We all work from home and telecommute between Arkansas, Kansas, and Colorado. It is just three of us right now and we are hoping to add the structural guy perminately if business ever picks up again. In the (partially unemployed) mean time I am going back to school for Masters of Architecture and working on my car. ...Oh the Fun...
