    Hey All;

    New guy from White Lake, MI here (about 40 min NW of Detroit). Moved up here from the Cleveland area about 2 years ago after 7 long years of college:D. Bought a '49 Ford a few months back to build a balls out hard-topped taildragger; what a pile, but hey I'll make it work. So, as I've been constantly searching Craigslist and ebay for some 'ol shoebox parts my buddy says "dude check out the HAMB"... so I did. And WOW what a great place; didn't even know it existed. I couldn't believe it, a whole message board full of great people dedicated to the stuff I love. I've spent a few weeks cruising the postings here and what a wealth of information and great stories. Cheers to some future friendships!!

    -Rob

    Thanks for the welcome guys, especially you locals. Miller, thanks for the connection to the local chapter and Captain, I'll definately plan on stopping by at the Autorama.

    Stefan, I checked out some of your pictures the other day and that is some great work you've got going on your ride. Some serious craftsmanship there.
