Hello to all! I will try to keep this breif just a short intro. I am a new fella hear on the HAMB have dabbled before but now i'm hooked must join. I am a mechanic by trade, a gear head from birth and a product of my surroundings. Both Grandpas owned body shops in montana resulting in my desease. Currently own a mild custom 52 chev deluxe bought when I was 14 with a mere 92k on the clock. Second registered owner. Shes lowered, slightly dechromed and kinda rough for how long I've had her. I am working on a warmed over 292 to replace the 216 with a 5-speed planned for the box. Fentons, dual carbs are to follow. Also own a pretty little 56 Olds 88 4 door thats real close to stock, 81k on her ticker. Plans include slight dechroming(rear door handles) some spots and skirts, done! maybe? Oh and ground clearance removal of course. At this time my great pal Spooky and I are resserecting a car club he founded in the 90's. I am the VP of the Pan Draggers NW. Much respect to former and current members in colorado wish you all well. Sorry havent kept this short. I love old skool punk rock, rockabilly, choppers, bobbers, gassers and long walks on the beach. Oh wait! Any way, thanks for reading if you make it this far. Enjoy your days and be Safe. Shiftytwo
Howza Bruthas- Toby is a kick assed person to hang around with and is ripe for the learnin'. Did I mention he has a cute misses? Never mind- It is great to stumble upon a person who has the same interests in music and cars and lives less than a mile away! Oh, yeah, he has lived here for a few years and we only met last year! Toby will bring some great insight to the HAMB. Veterans embrace this person. Good guy.
