    just found this site yesterday and figured i would see what and how things go. got started in the upholstery business when i was 10, with my mom she p***ed away in 1977, and just kept doing what i new best, 37 years later still doing it. i have a 1958 Chrysler Windsor 4 door, and is named Christine, because she doe's have a mind of her own. hope to make some new friend here, and share a few stories with ya'll.

    she is all original, except the fuel pump. 361 poly hemi and runs like a ****d ape, started the interior but never finished it, even the radio still works. the guy i rent from is going to do the body and paint sometime for me in trade for some interior work, he is getting ready to build a 35 sedan for his wife.
    do we have a photo gallery here to post bigger file photos, all mine are to big to upload
     
  7. Welcome to the HAMB from another Illinois trimmer. I don't do it full time anymore but I'll pick up a job now and again. I'd love to see some of your work. Post some pix when you get a chance.

    Lots of good guys & gals here with a collective knowledge that boggles my mind!! Good to have you here!

    welcome from a border state... if you look at yer photos with windows, go down to the bottom of pic to the task bar... then click on the ****on that says close photo for editing... that will take you to paint...on the top task bar, click on image ****on then stretch/ skew... set them at about 60% by 60% and save them .. then you can see if that made them small enough to put on the hamber or not... if not makem smaller... hope that helps:eek: :)
