    I found the HAMB after starting grad school three years ago. Just married, living in a one bedroom apartment on student loans, 4 hours from "home" and my hot rod buddies. The HAMB became my garage.

    One year prior to starting grad school I sold my '40 coupe and '61 Cadillac to buy her a ring and take care of some other debts. I thought any hope for building another hot rod was years away. This place showed me that it could be done on a budget though. I got serious about collecting the parts for my next project.

    Lots of scrounging and a few years later I am at this point.

    It is ALL because of the daily motivation I draw from this board and its members - many of whom are now my friends.

    Thank you Ryan.

  2. I was thinking the same thing about my next Rod being years away after a very expensive divorce...! [​IMG]

    And since I've met people on this board they've helped me see that this is what is all about..., "friends with a common interest helping each other out"! Relizing you can Get a car on the road and having fun without going bankrupt"! [​IMG]

    The cars are nothing more than the catalyst and the outcome of such fun ***ociations! [​IMG]

    Thanks Ryan, Kontinentals, Bleed, Cheaters, and the rest of the HAMB! [​IMG]
