HAMB correct and incorrect?!?!

So im kinda lost here, im pretty new to the site and see alot of people building some pretty sweet ****. I started posting my build and my buddy dave tried to start posting his build on here. As soon as he put his build thread up a ton of people started **** talkin and his thread got deleted because he is putting 22s on his 62 biscayne. Id see how this would be a issue if thats all he was doing, but seeing how hes bagging the car and body dropping it on those 22s i dont see how thats a issue. Alot more work goes into getting a car to lay body on 22s then a set of 15 in WWW?!?! Apperantly its not custom unless its got 15" WWW on it? Im a bit lost i thought we were all here because we enjoyed old custom cars? I guess thats just a handfull of us and the rest are just a bunch of grumpy old man keyboard thuggin in their yellowed tighty whiteys?!

 

There is a huge percentage of younger people here.

You need to read the thing about "spreading the traditional" part.

Nothing wrong with any styles of any cars, but they all don't fit this site, that's all.

 

I am Shure it is a ton of work but the fact you posted this at all..........you are a bit lost and most likely wont get it.maybe in time you will.

 

I was going to say something and provide a link, but this time I'll just crack a beer and sit back for the fireworks

 

Your friends ride isn't TRADITIONAL. No dub rims allowed.... for one. The same reason I wouldn't post my T Bucket on a lowrider site. It does NOT belong. it's not that hard. Read the home page, because obviously you didn't. All tossing out insults will only get you flamed.

Straight from the big man upstairs -

"This is a TRADITIONAL hot rod and custom forum. We only cover '65 and under cars built in a traditional style"

 

Here it comes

 

ARRRGGHHH!! Another land lover done crossed tha plank! I like pirates.

 

sweeden, buy some Hot Rod magazines from '55-'63. Read them. Read them again. If you dont see it in there (And I know FOR DAMN SURE you wont see any "22's") then it doesnt belong on the HAMB. End of story...

Oh, and if you and your friend are talking about 22's and bags on a traditional hot rod forum, YOU are the ones who are "**** talking" whether you know enough to realize it or not. Learn a little bit prior to opening your mouth, then you wont have to look like a dumb-***.

 

There are other hot rod forums like http://www.rodsnsods.co.uk/forum/ to post this on if you want to . Some are not a traditional as this one. As an aside air bags could be cl***ed by some as traditional as ford used them in the 50's

 

Sad trombone.

 

If you have to ask, you will never understand.

I am keyboard thuggin in my traditional yellow whitey tighties for sure, but I am still in my 20's.

 

Cant spell dumb nuts without dubz.
What is it with these youngsters with their loud c***ette players and fancy hair doos?

 

Just p***ing through to once again increase my post count! I can see the clouds getting darker!

Yeah!

 

Just here to boost my post count.

We should admit it's pretty difficult to agree upon "traditional style."

Some here feel EFI is OK as long as it's sorta hidden a****st Hilborn stacks or inside some Rochesters or 97s.

Some think a 350" SBC crate is OK if it's got Olds rocker covers.

Most everyone will let a 4L60E slide because it's out of sight.

Hard to get any two of us to agree where a '50s barn find ends and a rat rod begins.

Is anything Ed Roth did in the '60s "in the traditional manner?"

For most, it's like the Supreme Court Justice said about ****, "I know it when I see it."

So many posts like this just moaning, if you dont understand the rules don't post here and find a site that's for you....now as for the "bunch of grumpy old man keyboard thuggin in their yellowed tighty whiteys"

If thats what it takes to be here in your eyes then I wanna be a grumpy old man ( but I'm only 26) keyboard thuggin in their yellowed tighty whiteys ( i want a pair )

 

Traditional Hotrods just say no to 22's
