My name is Skip Farrell. I live in Brooksville, Florida.
I have been lurking on here for 3 or 4 years and have finally stepped up and joined the HAMB.
I have two drivers and several projects. The two drivers are:

Flat black ’55 Mercury 4dr sdn, 500 inch Cadillac, th400, 10 bolt 3:42 posi, Camaro subframe. Still needs the interior done.

Flat black ’71 Cadillac Crypt deVille Superior hearse. (swap meet wagon) This one is driving but not truly started yet. I want to finish this one with a 40’s 50’s kustom look.

The projects:
’33 Pontiac 2dr sdn, ’49 Cadillac 4dr sdn, ’51 Cadillac 4dr sdn, ’66 Cadillac 4dr ht, ’66 Cadillac Coupe deVille.
The ’33 pontiac is going to be a fenderless beater with a 500 Cadillac. The ’49, ’51, and both ’66 Cadillacs are slated to be kustoms.

I do all my own work. Some of it I am really good at, some I am ok, and some...well…I may not openly admit to. I also do work for other people when they don’t know any better to take it somewhere else.
My day job I work for a Corvette shop doing restorations and resto-mods. (hey, it pays the bills and I’m preserving parts for future hot rods and kustoms, and I will admit I like them.)
I have got a lot of useful info (and sometimes not so useful but entertaining) off the Hamb. Maybe now that I have joined I can reciprocate and contribute back. I have friends who are already members and hopefully I will make some new ones now that I am here.
