I'm sure I told this story before, I had stumbled across the HAMB while looking for info on Peter Vincent books, 'saw there were guys talking about Olds engines, asked if anybody had anything for sale and promptly got a lesson on message board etiquette from a couple keyboard tough guys. about a year later I attended the first Hot-Rod-A-Rama in Tacoma and overheard some guys talking about this place, rejoined and have been here almost every day since. a picture of one of the guys doing the talking, don't remember his name, took the picture to remember and search for the HAMB
Paul, Looks like you joined 5 days before I did. EDIT: and Mark joined a year and a half before either of us.
23 years goes by pretty quick. When I first read that, I thought, dang I’m a newbie. Then I got curious and looked only to learn I’ve been here right at 17 years. I will say, if the internet went away tomorrow, this is the only place I would truly miss.
Is it a thing to transition to being a FOG...??? That seems like a comfortable fit, and something you should wear with pride.
Congrats Paul I have 3 years and I do consider myself a FNG Great place you helped create. Here’s to another 23 Dan
thanks Dan, but I had nothing to do with it's creation. This is all Ryan's doing, we have him to thank. I would like to think that I do more to help than hinder around here though.
I’m sure you do. You’re part of the team and all you guys do a fantastic job of keeping this machine Cadillacing along. Thank you Dan
Congratulations on your anniversary. I always see your name pop up in forums, and I see your contributions. It’s people like you that make this, for people like me. Glad that you stuck around for all these years. Otherwise I wouldn’t have a place to go to.
