My choice came from my years of wrenching and my choice of carbs on my VW bug race car. My buddies call me "gear" and I run 48 IDA Webers. When I picked this name it was for the VW forums, to state I ran Italian Webers rather than Chinese models or the newer Dellotos. Why change, thus GEARIDA!

Back in the day I had an old houseboat that I lived on in the summer. A friend of mine would come to spend the night with her kid in tow. He loved that houseboat and when he would go back to school he would do art projects, and show and tell titled "billsboat"...he gave me the art project, I still have it someplace, very fond memories !

When we moved up to the high school football team, you had two choices, get branded or get your head shaved. I picked the head shaving for obvious reasons! Stopped at a friends house and he laughed and said I looked like a muskrat. Name stuck! BTW, one guy did get branded!

WELL....my user name comes from Steve Tasker, former player of the Buffalo Bills. Yes, my favorite team. Been a long time coming for them. I just loved his tenacity and his careless abandon that he played with,(you should see me drive blindfolded!) and a super nice guy in person as well....it seemed fitting! ;D

About six months after I started restoring my 69 I found this site. When I decided to join I realized that I was spending way to much money on the old horse hence BRONCOBUSTED . its been worth every penny.
