New Guy From Illinois

Discussion in 'New to the H.A.M.B.? Introduce yourself here!' started by Junior1964, Aug 30, 2006.

  1. Just wanted to do a proper intro an all. Name is Bill, I am from Central IL. Been into off roading for years, got a little burned out on the whole deal. Stumbled onto this page sometime ago, and have been hooked ever since. Looking to build an early 50's Chevy Pickup rat rod this winter. This place is a greeat source of info, and attitude all together.Thanks for all the guys who take the time to post tech stuff, and pics of their progress.

  2. Welcome from another Bill in Central Illinois. There are getting to be quite a few of us around here from these parts. So do you have the truck or are you looking for one?

  12. I was. I bought a '49 Chevy cab to do, and then stumbled onto a partially finished '47 Ford pickup, and I am going to finish that, since I can get on the road a little quicker. I am looking to sell the '49 cab if you no anybody local looking.
