GMB comes out of the closet...

Hi everybody, Tim here, alot of you already know me, just getting around to my intro. Joined about a year ago, but I've been a lurker for about 6 years, so I probably hold the record for the longest time lurked. I'm just a regular guy, four kids, mortage, etc. I live in Michigan, work for FoMoCo, and have three cars, a 1937 Ford truck, a 1926 model T, and a 29 Ford powered by a 348. All trad stuff here. So carry on, and back to your regularly scheduled programing...

 

Welcome *** Hole, you dont have any good pictures of your cars.

 

Welcome, nice cars. Must be rough trying to decide what to drive.

 

Nice cars.

bret

 

Sweet Fleet. Welcome in.-MIKE

 

Hey Tim, good to see you make it official... being out of the closet and all... hahaha. -Joe

BTW- we wont tell anyone who your brother-in-law is, that would ruin your credibility.

 

about damn time! I still like the T the best

 

Is that Donzies old tub?

 

Your cars are very Rad, welcome to the H.A.M.B.

 

Yep. Welcome to the rest of yer life.

 

You've BEEN outta the closet since 82, Bro!!


(You and Kevin shoulda swapped shirts for this photo!! )

 

Thanks for the welcome all!

Gus-I really dont need "good" pic's of the cars, god knows I spend enough time on them...

Hey Mut-its really not difficult, they are always in a state of disrepair, ya drive which ever one runs.

JW-please dont tell. Lets just remember who turned him on to this place!

 

Oh yeah, Dirty-I still owe ya a ride, I didnt forget.

Levis-yeah, its the "new and improved" chick magnet with scratch and sniff!

Pete-trust me, nobody wants my life!

Hack-82 was a good year! And no, I dont look like Boyd. With or without his shirt. See ya in a half hour...

 

Ha Ha, yeah...I suppose you're right...

(you'd need the HAT, too!!)

 

Hey Tim welcome. You might be out of the closet but you are extra gay as long as you still own that awefull 37 pickup.

I think it would be a good idea to sell it to me, I am very secure in my gayness and will take good car of it hahahah.

 

Thanks, AGAIN, for the offer to try and make me straight. It will take more than that though! I mean look at who is my bro-in-law! How ya gonna fix that? Believe me, when its ready to find a new home, you will be the first one I call.

 

Hey look, my backyard is famous.... it's got BOYD in it!

Good to see ya admit to the illness that afflicts the rest of us.

Jay

 

We cruised with Tim and two of his rides to Billetproof. I think he hired someone to drive the one he wasn't in. He has some neat stuff.

Welcome aboard.

You have seen your drag plate, right?

 

Oh yeah, I've seen that! L.O.L. Hell, I live it! BTW, that was not a hired hand, that was my bud Jim Goodrich, now he is old school. He and my pal Frank were part of the original "Automobile Custom Club" of the early 50's here in Detroit. They were the ones who put on the first Autoramas at the U of D fieldhouse. Franks car won third place in 53 I believe. I like his comments like, "we just boogered up the spiders", or, "nobody boxed those frames, it wouldn't go any faster." Good people...

 

Hi Tim! Great to see you finally intro'd. You know your T is my favorite and I'd do just about anything to convince you to bring it to the HAMB Drags. I wanna see it run before I die!

 

Well ya know the HAMB drags isn't really an option for me. There's just to much going on here at home. But I live through your eyes and photo ops. You know how difficult things get here... Thanks.

 

Yea, your just too responsible for your own good. You need to run away from home for a weekend..........or let me take it there for you.

 

Hey Denise, I know I owe you a ride as well...

And to tell you the truth, I dont think I could afford to take it to Mokan. Lets see, 4:11 spool, 9 inch converter, 12 to 1 compression, two 660 center squirters, I would need a trailer-not for the car, but a fuel tanker towed behind, just to feed it 110 oct. turbo blue! My *** hurts just thinkin about it! It was $3.86 a gallon last fall...

 

kool cars thanks for comin out the closet.

 

Great to see your OUT....

 

Thanks again guys n gals! This wasn't as bad as I expected, not like the hazeing/flameing of the old HAMB in days gone by. Now where did I put my pink fur...

 

You left it in my car again...how many times I gotta warn you about that ****???

(Anyhow...you're just lucky Cadet Wilson swings both ways also!!! )

 

I guess it just blended in with your pink fun fur interior. I'll have Cadet Wilson pick it up later...

 

Welcome. Those are some awesome cars, think I have seen them out and about well I was driving to and from work a couple of times. Admired them when I saw them, still admire them in the pics.

 

Thanks Poncho, I drive them to work often in the warmer months. It makes working seem less painful...
