New guy here

Stu D Baker here. Great site. Give me some time to look around before I hurt myself.

 

I love the screen name man. Why had no one thought of that before? lol

Welcome to the HAMB, Stu! Have fun.

 

Welcome Mr.Baker.

Sure beats my old screen name: Ira D. Bus

 

welcome Stu to the HAMB.

 

Okay, you got me. I've got a 1937 Ford Slantback that I've had for about 15 years. This past fall, I put a crate zz4 in place of the aluminum 215 olds, and did a repaint.

I've got a 1950 Stu D Baker that I'm making a slead out of. Mustang 5.0 driveline, stretched the body length, made it 6 inches wider, chopped the top to where it will sit about 50" from roof to the ground. Haven't decided on a color yet, but that's a long way off.

I built my own english wheel and planishing hammer to help with the serious forming and shaping of the bullet nose car. p.s. I'm an old tired bodyman, so I kind of know what I'm screwing up. Stu

 

There, Now don't you feel better? We can always use a bodyman to set us stright. Pogo

 

I feel much better now. I don't know how much help I could ever be, but if any H.A.M.B.ers in N.W. Indiana or N.E. Illinois want to whack the **** out of their ride, I suppose we could do that. Stu

 

welcome body work is not my strong suit but I have been able to pick a lot of mechanical information here.

 

Welcome Stu, from another NE Illinoisan. Got time to show me that homemade english wheel?
