New in Detroit

Hi Folks,

I've got a '51 stude pickup with a flat 6 champion and am looking forward to doing a little rodding on it. I've greatly enjoyed reading the posts and learning what other rodders are up to.

I'm also interested in finding folks north of detriot who are doing this kind of work on their rides.

Thanks.

Chas.

 

So where in the Motor City do you live???

There is a post on the main board of the HAMB about a May 6th GMB (Michigan HAMB members) lunch/brunch on Saturday May 6th in Birch Run. Join us and you'll get the opportunity to meet about 25 HAMB members in person.

Welcome board.

 

Welcome to the HAMB.

 

hello from detroit as well

 

Let me be the first one from Flint, to welcome you aboard. -Joe

 

I guess the FNG doesn't know the back and forth communication that takes place on message boards.

 

Maybe his fingers got mangled in an unfortunate donkey show incident shortly after writing his intro.

 

Kwame took his car away and he's bashful to reply now. Don't scare him away. . . .Welcome, Chas. Good to see so many rods in the Detroit area.

 

I'm a little slow on the draw, but I'll get the hang of it. I'd love you see everyone on the 6th, but I'll be in Ann Arbor at a soccer game. Is there any chance the group hits a local spot on weeknights during the summer?

 

Hi HBdeluxe, Thanks for the welcome! Some how I'm guessing that Kwame wouldn't have much interest in taking my car, as it's not as shiney as his Lincoln Navigator, which I see on the news all the time...

 

So Joe, are you familiar with Dort Hwy and Davison Road?

 

Tuesdays, Weds and Thursdays, different cruz nites in and around the west side of town
Fridays, usually the 50s MickyD on Telegraph in Dearborn Hts
Saturdays, usually the Shell station on Woodward at 13 1/2 mile across from Duggans
Sundays, Bakers in Milford

Yep, I'd say some of the Detroit area GMB's get together quite often

I drive a purple '47 Olds convert
Roadstar drives a flat black '32 roadster with the number '57 on the side
Beatnik drives a flat black '27 roadstar
62Wagon drives a flat black '62 Chevy wagon with an ironing board on top
DirtyT drives a slime green '50 Chevy
StinkyFinger drives a flat black '49 Fleetline
Detroit Torch drives a silver and purple '55 Caddy
My Dad drives a black and silver '56 Olds

None of us are hard to spot.

 

Hi Denise, I'm actually up in Clarkston, but my Dad is down at the nursing home near Long Lake and Woodward. I'll try and make a stop at the Shell station on one of these Saturdays in the near future after I've made a visit with him.

Would you be familiar with the anybody from the Poor Boyz or Pecker Heads car clubs?

Chas.

 

Stickylifter is in the poor boys and most of the gmbs know boomer and most of the poorboys and shit. Im over in Warren now but my dad lives off of andersonville road and i want to try to hit up that cruise night over at kmart on m24 some time.
