welcome a board charles from sacramento ca, you have quite the collection!!! hope you figure out how to post pics would like to see your cars! tim
Welcome, Charles. Don't worry, some of us - like me, for example - actually think Chevy motors are preferable in traditional customs than SBF's. But it's all a matter of taste. Otherwise they'd call 'em "same-ies" instead of customs. Post pix soon!
WOW, is your wife upset with you for all your vehicles also? Thought I was the only one in the dog house over cars around Welcome!
Ahhhh.... another "Chord" lover.... Welcome from Oregon! Sounds like you have some great cars, looking forward to seeing pictures. This is a great group, you'll like it here.
Welcome ,Charles! Sounds like you have a nice collection of Fords. A great bunch of people here willing to help out. You will like it.
Welcome Charles, sounds like a great collection, can't wait to see pictures. Here's a link on how to post pictures. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...&highlight=how+do+you+post+pictures+in+thread Also how to post embedded video. I think the video only works on the main board. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=508906
Welcome to the Group! Hey,3 out of 4 ain't bad looking forward to the pics.Actually back in '63 I was going to trade up my '53 Ford for a '54 with a 401 Nailhead Buick,it scared my Dad so bad He wouldn't let me have it,that car was wicked fast.
Charles , Welcome to the best group on the HAMB ! We are always happy to have another on that loves our Fords ! I hope to see the pictures soon of you fleet of Fords ! Make sure you get your information for our "group map" ! You might have someone from the group right around the corner from you ! Jim
Thank you all for your great comments. The four Fords are part of my 21 car collection. I'm very lucky my wife of 31 years has been by my side, going to swap meets, car shows,(sometime as early as 4 in the morning). She is very understanding, even when I come home from work and go out to shop till late at night, SHE IS DEFINITELY A KEEPER......... I think it will be a pleasure to be part of this group. Charles
21 cars! Impressive! We don't have twenty one cars in my entire town! Get some pictures on here for all us to see.
Charles , Yes I would say she's a keeper for sure . I am also very lucky to have a wife like that as well . She goes to the car shows , swap meet and she even had the garage build for me so I wouldn't have to lay out in the driveway in all kinds of weather to work on my cars ! I have been married for 26 years now so mine is a truly great keeper as well ! It's hard to find them and I guess we were both very lucky in that respect ! Jim
my nephew showed me how to post pictures by just attaching photos using the advanced post ****on and browsing for your pictures in your computer. i got a few up of my 54 now just a few but more to come. charles
