Welcome from N.E. Ohio. Car looks good.

 

welcome to the H.A.M.B.

 

Hi Jayne,
I saw your greeting and looked at your cool car photo, and thought man, that is Wichita! I checked your location, and I was right! I grew up there. Have resided in Austin for 14 years now. Don't miss the cold one little bit. Anyway, I swear I've seen that street and those houses. Estelle? Welcome and keep that thing off the salty streets.

 

Thanks guys! I've got a bit to do to the old girl but, she runs and stops and right now thats good enough for me!!! Bigchuck, thats about 20 blocks or so east, think more Seneca and Maple and you'd be close.

 

Ok, I've got it now. Wichita kinda looks similar in a lot of places. Guess the same builder was in a lot of neighborhoods.
So, is Hall's Speed shop still in business?

 

Jayne,
Hey another Wichita HAMBer, i'm just north of Mulvane, grew up in wichita, we have a great bunch of hot rodders in the area,will have to get together this summer.

 

Gene Hughes owner of Halls is still cooking! Busier than ever.i

 

Bigchuck, I think it's more that around these areas it was the years in which they where put up. My house was built in 1920, but yes they all do look alike just like they do today!!
yblock, do you have ALL of those right now or DID you have those at one time or another? It's quite the list! Yea gettin' together would be great! My buddy that got me on this site has a 60's Caddy and I wan't to have mine ready for the Spangles and Sonic "shows"! How many people are in your club/ do you guys have a website?
Also any of you have experience with 6 volt systems? I have been told mine needs to be Positive ground but it's hooked up Neg ground right now. I have also been told that to get it right I need to polarize the generator to get it to properly charge the battery since it's been hooked up backwards. Help is always welcome!!!

 

another new member from Wichita. Strong Nebraska fan and love big cars when you see me say hi

 

Welcome aboard!!!

Love the Wayfarer its hard to believe unrestored cars are still out there. They have a factory chop top that is way too Kool.

Happy Trails,

Mick
