    hi & welcome. Nice care to make into a great ride. When you start posting photos or build thread or have questions post them on the General discussion Hokey *** message board and everyone sees that
    Good luck with your build, Jimmie

    Just want to start with a little about this car and my progress in this restoration , the car was last tagged on the road in 1979,the year I was born,lol,anyway it has been stored ever since,after finding the car for sale I couldn't p*** it up,as I have stated it has a 230ci flathead six with a three on the tree trans,I have sanded and painted all the parts I could,including the block,fan,pully,waterpump,oil bath filter housing,and engine compartment.I have replaced the timing set,coil,plugs,wires,new carb,mini torque starter,hoses,belts,new closed canister oil filter,and swith ed to a alternator conversion kit,the seats are being reupholstered in a two tone black and white tuck and roll,and should be ready this Wednesday,headliner and carpet to follow,the car runs and drives great,other then brake issues,they are a little sloppy,replaced the master cylinder,and wheel cylinders but the adjustment nuts to tune the pads are a pain in the #!%@
    Thinking about paint colors now any ideas?

    I was wondering how I go about posting on the general message board,or do I need to keep posting on the new to the ham... section?

    I won't suggest color combinations, but perhaps you'll find inspiration in these two paint jobs...

    All you need to do is click on the HAMB message board..and NOT the Introduction page
     
  16. post anywhere you want, you can sell stuff in cl***ifieds but can not respond to the other threads. must contact seller through private message if you see something you want.
