    I see that @Moriarity hesitantly acknowleges the existence of the Chevrolet Vega, wonder how long a photo would remain up here on the HAMB of Bill Jenkins' history making Vega pro stocker.
    Better not chance it.

    Honestly, let’s stop bringing “it” up any longer. The best that can happen now is that the resent off post’s disappear and not the entire thread.

    In my teens I had that same ambition, there was a guy running around the cruise with a BBC in one of them.
    I thought “wow”.
    Then my older friends clued me in on what would be needed, etc.

    See, my sister had a 200 dollar version of the same car, dead engine, etc. I thought “how tough could this be”?

    lol

    Ya, my dad stepped hard on the idea, not to mention my lack of skills and $$ to even pull it off!

    Yea, you don't want to F-Up your wagon post.
    Stick to the Wagon.
    Post your Vega, Pinto, VW stuff in the off topic section.

  7. Sure is easy to get off topic and on the mods bad side when we are having "fun".

    And, yeah, I for one sure do appreciate when just the offending part is deleted and the rest of the thread remains.
    Thanks, guys.

    And that's why we send reminders.
    So the whole thing doesn't turn into Fubar.
    You start scrambling shit all together and before you know it all you have is scrambled shit and ain't fun.

    On topic posts.....
    Off topic posts....

    Place for both but it goes so much better separated and don't mix the two.

    The good thing is everyone knows LLoyd is building his wagon and it will be top shelf stuff. The best part is reaffirming that there is more than one flavor of ice-cream and while all of us have differing tastes, in the end we can all agree ice-cream, much like cars, is good. Now get back to the Rocky Road LLoyd. :)

    He's probably taking a break from the automotive critics, or has a new girl friend. He does have a hazardous occupation, so hopefully he is well.

  17. I still like the tri 5. I hope the Ve... is just a Lloyd joke.

    @Lloyd's paint & glass , I hope all is well at your place.

    Probably the normal 48 hours on shift at the firehouse / something like that.
    The guy has 2 jobs.... and probably busy.
    But true it's been almost 2 weeks since last logged on.

    Naw, he’s doing “eff it” thing, getting the ‘55 done to debut it and then say “been a bit busy”. :)

    I always get a kick out of anything that Lloyd is associated with, or has said, or has posted, or any of his projects.
    Since I am the son of true "Okies", I have a soft spot in my heart, for those unique people from the South, such as the region that Lloyd is from.
    I figured this particular page in this thread, is the right place to add a little appreciation, for the amazing "Lloyd".

    L = LIKABLE
    L= LOUD
    O = OUTRAGEOUS
    Y = YEOMANLY
    D = DETERMINED

    I had to go to the dictionary to find the proper word that started with the letter "Y", and there isn't a lot of words that are applicable, and I knew that a lot of the H.A.M.B. Universe would not take the time to go look that word up, so I did it for you all, and I think you will agree with the underlined definitions.

    Besides all that, the man is a Fire Fighter, and you have to really appreciate and understand, just what it takes to be a Fire Fighter.
    Good on you Lloyd!
    Thanks from Dennis.

    At the risk of ''going facebook'' - Lloyd's cool. We texted a few days ago about verboten political stuff.
     
  26. Steve is correct, I talked to Lloyd on the telephone on Sunday.

    I'm guessing he's not watching Jeopardy and crocheting a sweater!:eek:

  28. Lloyd is a strange bird, he is probably working on a secret off topic project,not to mention he has a full time job at the fire dept and plays in a band also, Lloyd is a busy man. HRP

    It just isn't the same here on the HAMB without Lloyd adding his idle musings, as well as some knowledge, on so many threads!
