Smile Hello from the Moon

Hi folks !
I'm from the Belgian country and have always dreamt about owning an old muscle car one day ! Well this dream has now come true.
I am on my way to pick up a 1979 firebird that I purchased last week. There is a ton of work to do on it but all in all, she's still very solid.
My son and I plan on a total rebuild. He is a mecanician and welder at a bmw car dealership and want to start his own business now.
This will be our father aand son project for the next coming years.
I've been into bikes (all kind of, sometimes extreme, choppers and speed bikes), old British and Japanese cars restoration, music playing (blues bars)
all my life.
I now live in the country with lots of wild animals around (deer, boars, cattle, etc...) and it is just beautiful. I love it so much.
I work as a night semi-truck driver for quite sometime now so I don't have all the time I would like to live my passions, but I try.

I have 3 big children and I just became grandfather two weeks ago
We live in a bungalow with a whole parrots family (7 flying free in the whole house and a good bunch of reptiles (small and biiiiig ones). These do not free roam all the time due to some "security" issues hahaha. We wait at least til they are fed up and not hungry anymore.

Oh yes, I'm french talking (long gone U.S. family) so I might make many mistakes while writing in English, sorry for this if/when it happens. Just correct me.

Well, anyway, thank you all for your wellcome. Wish you all the best !
