    Hello everyone,

    Like the ***le says, I've been relocated to Richmond for work. I'm always looking for traditional hot rodding stuff going on. Any thoughts? Ideas? Advice?

    Thanks in advance,
    Joey

    I think you've landed in a pretty good place, Joey. I don't really know any of those guys in that area personally, but I read about their exploits on the very active Va. Social Group. It seems they are always getting together for "breakfast cruises" and road trips around the state. Joe Smith Early Ford is now operating in your area now under new ownership since its' days in Georgia. I think they have an annual open house. The Karb Kings have a nice show up in the Fredericksburg area and of course the NASCAR events take place twice a yr. right there at the old fairgrounds site. You will be right at home and I'm sure some of the locals will chime in on here to welcome you with open arms. For now, I'll give you a bump back to the top.:)................Don.

    Welcome to VA from a neighbor in NC! My wife's family is in Richmond, so I get up there occasionally!

    And don't forget to make the occasional trek south for some more HAMB-friendly events!

    Welcome to Virginia. I'm up in Fairfax, 20 miles outside of DC.

    A couple of dates to save:
    The Third Annual Rodder’s Journal Revival is September 27-28, 2014 at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland.
    This year's Jalopyrama will be Saturday October 18th at the Annapolis Maryland National Guard Armory.

    The Ukrop name has a lot of history here in Richmond.
