Bingo. I use Pro/E and have grown comfortable with it, unfortunately I don't get to spend as much time designing as I would like. In college I...
I've gotten more response from this than I thought. The file is 3.3Gb so it'll be a pain in the ass to send to everybody and his bodyman. For...
I've got the '54 chevy episode recorded on my computer (I've got one of those fancy video cards :D). PM sent.
I'd say it equals too little time wrenchin' on what you've got and too much time thinkin' about what you may never get. Everything is a...
Welcome from up the road in Green Bay. There are several stripers on the board, myself included although I'm on the early end of the learning...
Design engineer for a large outdoor power equipment company (snowthrowers) with primary emphasis on product testing. I graduated with a BSME from...
When you hold a face-to-face conversation with another HAMBer and talk about others using only their HAMB names. And you both get it. If you...
"Oh, did he design the clothing line?" :D
Nobody has mentioned Bonneville yet, you people disappoint me.:D I don't see any hotrods or 'liners out on the flats, I'll have to send Google...
This one used to belong in my neighborhood. The guy's mailbox was flamed to match. He's since moved on to a Model A roadster and a '55 Pontiac...
I'm from Green Bay, but make occasional treks through the northwoods on my way to Houghton, MI, where I went to college for four years.
Is it possible to take a Bonneville shot that isn't completely bitchin? I need to build a go-fast car....
Here are two shots from my dad's '32 Sedan. The brackets are original Henry parts as far as we know. Holler if you need any more pictures from...

The vents were on top, similar to the pictures posted above. I wish I knew what the HAMB was back when I spotted the car the first time.... Oh...
I'm positive that the vents were not parallel to each other. The vents in your picture also look closer together than I remember, but I don't...
I don't think it was that new, but maybe. I'm kicking myself for not carrying a camera with me all the time. I saw an original-looking '56 Nomad...
I was expecting something much more obscure. There were a ton of short-lived car companies around at that time, I figured one of those would be...
Anybody know of a car with twin cowl vents from the '20s or early '30s? I spotted such a car about three years ago on M-26 east of Hancock, MI....
One of the local rodders is friend of Norm's, he had a party a couple of years back that Norm drove up to. I was off to college at the time, but...
I'll be roaming around in the Trailer Queens Suck t-shirt.
So....free parking at your place? My folks will have the rod in Milwaukee this weekend so I'll be cruising down in my too-new P/U. No chance at...
Any HAMBers going to the show at Pierce Park this Sunday? Attached is a truck that was at the show last year. The ol' Chevy was dripping with...
Here's my first multicolored airbrushed flame job. The pinstriped outline was also a first-ever.
In my experience, the problem can be reduced by standing on one of two pedals. The choice is yours...:) Seriously though, fixing the geometry...
Excuse my lack of age, where does the term "Wisconsin Rake" originate?
Thanks everyone. Learning to stripe has been an awesome passtime, especially for a guy who relaxes by heading to the garage.
Are you talking about the Z11 lightweight race package? Seems to me it was available in '63 only, and only 60 or so were made. Either way, I'd...
With all of the emphasis on wearing seatbelts, people often forget about headrests. I got rear-ended in my truck last November, the impact was...
My name is Scott, I'm 23, a recent college grad (mechanical engineering), and have been surrounded by rods almost since birth. I've got more time...
