I've been reading the HAMB for some time, but just joined. I have a 33 Chevy five window (no fenders - the only way). I have been into model building since about 1952, started with the wood kits, later customizing kits about 1958. I'm really into anything vintage, especially replicas of the famous hot rods and kustoms, and vintage style dioramas. I'm also a member of Traditional Rods and Kustoms in Scale internet group. I've also run the model show at West Coast Kustoms Paso, and now Santa Maria. Be there, bring models! I'm going to enjoy it here. Don

Welcome Don. I just saw you the other night at the get together on 16th St. You were talking to Steve Mora. I didn't know if you recognized me. Its been awhile since my dad took me over to your house. You should post some of the pictures of your model setups. I know I was really blown away when I saw that stuff for the first time and I sure most of the guys around here will be too.
hey don - my dad recognized your name. he said you guys used to work together at the city. jim marshall says hello. lets see some of those models too.
Yepperdo, we did. Now we are both kickin' back, or at least I am, lol Click on my name koolkat, I have a few pix in my photo album there, Oakland Roadster Show, Barris shop, and just a few others. I need to take more photos. I just became a HAMB'r yesterday so am still a virgin here. 'Von Don'

Hey Don, welcome to the board! I have been here quite awhile, but don't get to posting much. I do however find all kinds of great reference here for building my 1/25 scale stuff. Thanks for letting the folks know about my forum! Here is the main link www.thedpmcc.com/trak.html Anyone that is interested in joining is welcome! It's pretty much like the HAMB...but for modelers!
