[Chaoticcustoms]

Hey guys n gals. My name is brandon, im 22 and have my own shop full time right in the middle of iowa. I graduated out of wyotech 3 years ago. My shop was started to gear toward custom graphics aund paint. That didnt go as well as planned as it ususally doesnt. I got into rebuidables and normal autobody for a while and still do some. Started a rotissary resto for a guy on a 69 stang and now im going to have the shoebox sitting in the corner and joined this website for more knowledge. Lets face it im 22 and havent built 50 cars. I can do some quailty work but sometimes you need some advice. Ive also got a 28 5 window that i bought but im not really sure what im going to do with... I look forward to talking to everyone here.

Are you talking from your camera to the computer or from your computer to the HAMB?

Posting to the HAMB is easy. In the screen where you type your message, scroll down and you'll see "manage attachments". Click that and "browse" to the location of your pic on your computer. Once you click the picture, hit "upload" and wait until it says that the file has uploaded. Be sure that the picture size isn't too big (sizes of various formats are listed at the bottom of the laod page). Hit the "close this window" Then hit "submit reply".

Hey, welcome to the HAMB!

Welcome to the HAMB. I spent quite a few years in Grinnell, got family in Iowa City. I've been following the Iowa Transportation Museum development pretty closely, especially the restoration of the last remaining Spaulding-in fact, I'm sponsoring one of the headlights. Have you been the the antique car museum in Coralville? Got some pretty slick old rides there.

Post some pictures of your projects. Jeff

Yeah,thanks. I went to Grinnell College and had a daughter live there for a while, so I've been tracking the Spaulding. They've got some stuff in the Historical Museum-including some Spaulding buggies. The Coralville museum is cool, free,and, I think, missed the flooding. Check it out.
