Are you building driving or just watching

hahahahahaha!!

You replied to this post!

Neener neener neener!

 

Im trying to do a little of both...building and driving my '59 (it should be done by this spring), but as for the Model A, its building and more building....and more building. Did I mention some building? Anyway it'll all be worth it in the end

 

Just as I often do -I was poor at saying what I meant........
I do love the OLD HAMB and it was great as is the current improved HAMB.......
I think anyone who was on the board before recent weeks ,would have a real attachment to the old one,because we had used it so long.

Didn't mean to insinuate the improvements arent a step forward, Ryan,I just miss some of the old characters I guess -that are not posting as regular as they did in the past.
I will try to post something more worthy of reading............

 

Ironic Kenny, cause YOU'RE one of the people who's posts I miss......!

It's almost 11 pm, just came outta the garage, and the only reason I left is cause my wife/child are asleep above it(garage in the ba*****t) I am frozen, cause I had the garage door open, painting ****, cause I know spring is close and I want to be ready....What have you ***s been doin...Too much time here trying to catch a newbie not posting an intro and not enuf time in the garage....God bless Ryan for having established this board...Gives me something to do in non building times...My car would have never been completed without th HAMB.....Fido

 

winter's sabotaged me. got a few things in the works for the impala when it's a it warmer. dunno, built my first car last year, kinda just enjoying it. sometime i'll be building the 50 pontiac and ac***ulating parts for my the clone of my grandpa's 39 ford. might be winter that's diminished posts on the HAMB, kinda remember the same sort of post in winters past on here.

 

Right now I'm building or rebuilding. My Es*** roadster is all over the garage, clean, paint and repair the frame. I'll do a post on it later, its awesome, no more flat black for me.

 

Go with something other than flat black and the Greasies will kick your *** out!!

Well, I'm here at work, where I spend too much of my time, closing up the arena after a late night basketball practice session. The season is almost over, the temps are getting warmer, and I'm looking forward to some more time in the garage. A lot of events and stuff that I have to be at work for mainly involve being here in case something breaks or blows up; this allows me alot of time for surfing the net.

About two years ago, when I first started reading this board, I had a project being worked on ('39 Chevy 2 door) by a shop where the guy was putting his worst help on it, and still claiming he wasn't making any money on the job. I'm a hell of a parts chaser, but not a real mechanic. I was getting pretty frustrated with the way the job was going, so I just put it on a shelf, so to speak. Since then, I've been collecting parts to build a RPU, and learning all I can on the HAMB. Besides the fact that I've always wanted a convertible, a RPU seems like a great project to learn how to weld on.

All of which is a long-winded way of saying that without this board, I don't think I would have ever gotten around to attempting to construct a hot rod from the frame up, and I wanted to thank Ryan for making so much knowledge accessable to us amateurs via the HAMB.
