    I hesitate to ask this because I'll probably look stupid when someone answers. But, how the heck do I search the site ? I want to find the post about the G***er Willys but can't find it in the posts and can't find instructions on searching . Thanks, John

    I usually just use google, and add the word hamb to my search.

    My old way to search changed with the new format.
    From my recent searches I've found that
    1: if you are in a forum, the search is in that forum ie. if you are in Parts Wanted only items in that Forum are in the results
    2: if you are in the intro page all forums are searched
    3: If you hit search twice you can be more specific about forums searched (like the old advanced search feature)
    4 Put " " around your search phrase and it eliminates many erroneous results
    I quite often search on FE for the Ford FE engine so my search is in parts for sale and I key in " FE "
    I also search for Stromberg WW so "Stromberg WW" in the main/intro page

    Just my easy way Movin/on
