==About Me==
 +
<br>
 +
 
 +
===Personal===
 +
My name is Cameron. I have a daughter and a stepson. I was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ. I play guitar in the musical groups Skeledactyl and Hydra-Matic. I've played with and/or composed music for Eight Ohms, Mic Control+Alt+Delete, and Killing Caulfield. I've been involved with Audio engineering for many years and was either co-engineer or engineer and producer on the music by all the aforementioned musical groups.

I own a 1965 Chevy C-10 LWB that is currently powered by a 350 SBC through an SM420. My plans are to power it with a 455 Oldsmobile through a ST-10 transmission. I also have a completely stock 1984 Caprice Classic sedan powered by a 305 SBC through a 700R4. My plans are to swap the current 140hp 305 with a 1996 5.0L Vortec motor. My Daily driver is a 1996 C2500 SB/EX-Cab powered by the previously mentioned 5.0L Vortec through a 4L60E. I plan to eventually swap in a 5.7L Vortec.

My current goal is to build a scratch-built boat-tail style roadster powered by a supercharged slant 6 motor. As I begin to get further with my above projects, time and finances will tell if this project reaches fruition.

 +
===Other===
 +
I am open in admitting have no formal automotive training. Everything I've learned has either been from research, first hand learning or taught to me by my father. I work as a property engineer for a dual property of Hilton-brand chain hotels.
