    Hi! Been looking at the H.A.M.B. for years for inspiration. I have been into hot rods for my entire life with my dad being my biggest influence. I used to race a 60s style 65 Malibu then my dad and I built a 1940 Chevy coupe gasser that we try to run at some nearby gasser shows and have some fun on the street with. Currently I'm building a traditional style 33 ford pickup. This has been my dream build for 20 years. Finally started building it last year. Progress has been a little slow lately with a new baby boy born but still trying to find a little time to wrench on it.

    Dang the luck Pete. You are a bit far away. Was looking for somebody in the Allentown area to help out. Last fall I went out to Beaver Springs to the Nostalgia race and had a great time. Have you ever ben there?

    The Beaver Springs race was worth the 115 mile drive from Allentown. We have a few nostalgia races in Texas that we race in, but the Beaver Springs race is bigger. I only wish I could drag the old dragster up here .
