well i guess i should have made an introduction when i first signed up but better late than never. i wish i would have found this site along time ago but it wasnt brought to my attention until i bought a 31 coupe off of chopped50ford, hes the one who told me about the site. so i guess i owe him a debt of grattitude. im from huntington beach california, i have been into hot rods my whole life but never really thought i could afford one. then i stumbled onto the traditional rags, after that i realized that the cars i really liked werent really high dollar cars, they were the garage built ones. thats when i started looking around for a project. well needless to say i have a good start on things now with a 31 model ford coupe and a 30 sedan. since i am the only one i know that is into this stuff im on my own in the garage and finding the hamb has helped me sort through some serious problems. so i would like to say thanks to all the guys who have posted all the trouble shooting threads and answered any question i could really ever ask. hopefully as my skills improve and my knowledge increases i can help contribute alot more to the HAMB, but for now i am still just learning
