[bolt55]

Hey fellas, would any of you guys be willing to answer a couple of questions about yourselves for a documentary I’m putting together? Just a couple of random facts that I’m hoping to compile in hopes of getting some demographical information on the custom car “scene”. I appreciate it guys, and if you’d be willing to answer further questions or have questions for me, I can be reached at [email protected]
