New to HAMB

I don't usually come on this forum but I posted a thread asking where to buy a kick up rear crossmember for a Model A frame and got my thread deleated with a smart *** answer to "make it". What is with this? Did I do something wrong?

 

Did you do a proper intro?Tell a little about you & projects.Most times this a place of great knowledge and tech but there are some jabs and prods.Try using the search function,paitence gr***hopper

 

Start here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44274 you'll get along much better with this group if you read this and follow the rules before posting stuff.

 

I joined a couple of years ago but have never really used the site. Been building a stock sedan but now it is time to start building a hot rod ch***is using a stock one as a base. see my stuff at www.picturetrail.com/bartmcneill

 

Proper intro first, technical questions after, and for the crossmember, if you want a kick up in the frame, you'll have to make it, there is no already made "rear kick up"...

 

Hey Bart. Larry Roller here. You bought my Model A roadster body. Don't sweat the small stuff...this place is a treasure trove of information, but you gotta follow the rules or some will bite...no biggee tho, they are not poisonous.

 

This "facebook" for guys can be weird. Some are like real serious but I always go here when I'm too drunk to drive. It's fun

 

plenty big name guys on here got no intro ...just sayin.

 

Yeeeesssss!

 

purchase a copy of vern tardel and mike bishops book..."how to build a traditional ford hotrod" (i think that's what it's called). you will thank me later.

 

it thoroughly discusses frame mods, and everything else starting with a stock model a frame.

 

Bart, take an hour or so and read through this thread. Best frame thread on the board....

FWIW,the Hambers that have been here for many years all posted intros long before the advent of the kinder gentler Hamb,,if you didn't you didn't stay long.

If you search the users post and they have been here more than 5 or 6 years chances are during one of the upgrades a lot of their earlier post were lost,including their intros.

I know I posted a lengthy introduction being forewarned of the wrath that awaited me if I didn't and I still caught hell,,my caps lock was on!

Regardless of how you fell about it,,it's one of Ryan's rules and the rest of us expect it. HRP

 

I would not be too worried this place is the best.I was an alliance member for a few years but am on SS and can't afford it now.
If you can swing it be an alliance member.

 

Ah ha! Young gr***hopper failed to mention that little tidbit about mustangII...

 

you're fired.

 

i think Boyd Coddington has a forum
