Check out the HAMB & Scrapple group here on the HAMB.

 

Levittown here.

 

If the Macungie Auksfest hasn't happened yet, that'd be a good start for parts, then Hershey in October

 

Oh, and there is also a pretty big thread on PA HAMBers- you'll have to sift a bit, but you'll find the guys living close to you.

Where are you in Philly?

 

Welcome from Reading,Pa area! Definetly check out the wheels of time in Macungie August 24-26.

Also, if you need anything in particular PM me and I can probably point you in the right direction.

Welcome

 

Wow didn't expect so many replies so quickly. I actually live right outside of kutztown and was at Mcungie this past weekend admiring the cars. I used to live in Philly and went to school there but came up to the country for some relaxation.

I'm specifically looking for a grille for my 55 Plymouth plaza. I was told 54-56 plaza/ savoy/ suburban/ and belvedere grilles will fit. Also need the hood trim piece for just above the grille.

Also, what special considerations do our cars get during inspection? My car came from jersey which didn't require inspection and I'm scrambling to finish her up and meet code. I'm guessing I need working wipers and horn right? What about gauges? Are they required? The car was converted to 12v and therefore has a few electrical gremlins to sort out.

I suppose as a reward for helping answer these and making me feel so welcome I'll post a pic of my girl on another one of my toys.



And yes, she is a pinup model/ makeup/ hairstyler for shoots.

 

Man Bro, Kutztown! Your 20 min. from me. I'm looking for a grill. Stop by and shoot the breeze.

 

all you eastern PA go to the gasket goons show this weekend, tell them skeeter sent you

im an EX-bucks county resident that left the snow, cold, rain, and rat rods to move to southern AZ where we have very little of all that crap.

 

Where are you at?!?! Can I interest you in a case of beer to teach me the ways of old tie rods?!

If I can possibly get inspected by then I'll be there! My uncle is a local cable tv show host and will most likely cover it actually. Dick Craig, recognize the name?

As a fellow NE pa man and hamb'er I charge you with sending me a southwestern rust free grille!

 

i dont kno if i reconize your uncles name, if your car isnt on the road yet by this weekend drive your daily driver over and meet some other dude. all the NJ goons are buds of mine, well till i moved so i dont see them as much these days.
so what grille am i lookin for? post a pic.

 

Beautiful downtown Trevose here. Lower Bucks/N.E. Philly area.

Welcome

 

Welcome from Wisconsin. You don't have a Stuka in your garage do you?

 

I don't drink anymore, but I'll gladly share any knowledge I have with you. Stop by the shop anytime and let me know what your interested in doing or bring what you need worked on. I'll PM you my cell #. I'm in the shop most days from 9:00 AM until I get too tired to work on my own stuff at night.

Can't wait to meet up.

 

I wish! A 67 c10, 75 Honda 500 twin, 71 road runner, 88 350 powered rx7, a lifted jeep, and some guns. :/

Thank you sir!

I may just do that! I'm pretty damn close to inspection passing I believe. A couple long nights and I'm golden!

Here's my blank canvas:





Here's what it should look like:



I believe it's actually three pieces that bolt together and a hood trim piece, actually need two windshield wiper arms too. Thank you sir!

 

Excellent sir! Even better.

I'm sure we can work out something, I'll bring the pizza at the very least!

Read your profile and I'm pumped to see this honey hole of a garage!

 

Drove through Kutztown today...didn't see you there. Welcome aboard.

 

Filthydelphia here!

 

Hello fellow Pa guy

I am co-organizer of big event Sept 15th in Gap,Pa Lancaster County

It is a "Welcome Home" for our troops ---parade,cruise-in,fire works,music

*Family Center of Gap,Pa (Rt 30 near Rt41)

Come out and say hello!

 

Welcome from Walnutport.I'm about 45 min from Kutztown.

 

shoot.. I was in kutztown last week.. (on the way to the cave)
pm chevsotolac owner of "stans stainless" he is in the allentown area. and is just the guy to find you a local grill..

 

lol guess i wont be buying you a beer in wild wood...

 

Naw.... Long gone. They're in th process of building another strip center/mini mall there. Just what we needed.

We went for the last night there. It wasn't even that full for "Water World". Shame kids don't have any interest in this stuff anymore. Used to be a big deal for us. They just can't compete with the high quality experience a home system can.

 

What! I hit up shankweilers in schnecksville on the regular. If I had a radio in the 55 I would be there more often. I'm smelling a hamb meet and greet at the drive ins..........
