I have gathered alot of traditional parts I just need to throw them all together. Anyway just wanted to say hello and that I thing this is an awesome gathering of very interesting and talented car builders. I hope to visit with some of you soon, Thanks Mike
Welcome from Broken Arrow! I used to do a lot of contract work at the Uniroyal / Michelin plant there. Funny thing though, the guys there never did like to be called "Ard-*****s" ...........Just kiddin I second the pictures request.
Howdy from Enid. If you want to meet a bunch of H.A.M.B.ers might I suggest Joplin MO next weekend. And yes, pictures are good, nobody buys ******* for the articles. GV
Hey I found the build on choppermans 31 and my frame is identical to his. I have been trying to figure out who built my frame and it has to be a Johnsons Garage frame. Very nice work on these things. Jason if you are out there good job. I bought my pieces down in Lousiana but I think some of the stuff maybe just the body was in Missouri at one time. Anyway just trying to get a little history straightened out on my junk. Thanks guys for all the welcome comments and I will get some pictures on as soon as I can. Thanks, Mike
Welcome from Claremore. Us Okies more or less run the place.....well, 'cept for those Texans! LOL Duckus****us

special coupes are turning up more these days ! all the standards have been used ! I got chopped 40 pickup back window in my special ! good luck with the build !
Hey peckerhead you got any suggestions on attatching the top at the quarters and making it look right?
I finally pushed the model A out of the garage and took some pics. I have not been able to work on it at all lately. hopefully this winter.
Welcome, this is a great site, whole lot of very knowledgeable and helpful people here. I'd like to come check out your coupe sometime, I live over by Madill.
