I had filled this introduction out, and for some reason, it did not post, and me being a little ADHD, i never gave it a second thought, and posted a few times without anyone knowing who I am. For this error i apologize greatly. Now to the business. Hello everyone, I'm Michael S. Ramsey. I live in Central Arkansas. I am a stage hand with the I.A.T.S.E. I play drums in a couple blues bands, build hand wired tube guitar amps, hot rods, motorcycles, 4x4 trucks, and anything else i get the chance to. I recently located the 1958 Ford Custom 300 my step dad drove when i was a teenager. His mother had bought it for him a few months before she died of brain cancer. Later on due to a shift in family loyalty and other circumstances he was forced to sell it for lack of a place to store it after the cam broke. Then 15 years later, i happened upon it in a friends uncles salvage yard. I spotted the front half of the passenger fender thru the bushes from 50 yards away and knew it instantly. Many a memorable night were spent in that old car driving down dirt roads and jumping culverts. I was considering putting a big block 460 and c6 in this car, but have since decided to keep the 223 and add a t5, triple visiflows and a warmer cam, and just enjoy the car as i did as a rowdy teenager. I have already found more info and help here in a couple weeks than i ever thought possible, Old school hot rodders are the heart and soul of this lifestyle, and i value their wisdom. Again, I apologize for the oversight of the lack of my introduction, and hope my blunder hasn't offended anyone beyond repair. Thanks again and in advance for everything i have, and will learn from all the great people here. Have a great day everyone.
Welcome BB. I too posted my intro then it didn't show up. So I wrote a fresh one today. I'm a Ford guy too. I have a pair of 61s, an F100 and a Falcon.
Ummm.... yeah......... I may have been a little late with my intro (2 1/2 years), so we shall both burn in hell! but for now...... Hi! Welcome to the H.A.M.B.
Hey hey from Haskell.. (May as well call it Benton) AR. I don't post much, just search and read a lot.
My intro was riddled with silly talk of building a 70 chevelle pro-street .... boy did I get a whupping! My lil' brother is heavy into movie production, guitar building and all things unnatural in Conway ... maybe we are related.
