Hey all...just picked up on the intro thing...so here's mine

I'm from Nashville...37 yrs old...I've always been into bikes and cars...my first car at 14 was a junk 38 chevy bizness coupe that I worked on then traded for a runnin gold camaro like jimmy rockford's that I crashed within a week of my 16th...Im currently doin a tbucket with my son whos 12...we've learned a lot on here already and we're learnin' more everyday

For me the juice is in the process so I don't give a damn what anybody drives as long as it ain't mine.

Let the welcoming or bludgeoning commence

Stuff looks good. Welcome to the HAMB. I have a feeling you're gonna like it here...

I can't wait until my son is old enough to have a father/son project...

Finally, a sane intro. Welcome. I started a project with
my son when he was 13. That's how you grow close.
We are still best friends.

Welcome Johnnygringo,

I love the T....
It looks like you have some very cool stuff going on. I am sure our paths will cross at some point. I live about an hour and a half away from you out here in Monterey Tn.....

Have you ever ran across any Greazy Hubcapz? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Here is a link to Greazy central..... GREAZY STUFF CLICK HERE (http://photo.starblvd.net/Greazy_Hubcapz)

There are several HAMBers based in Tenn. as you will see....
Again, Welcome to the H.A.M.B.

Later,
JT.

Welcome Johnny. Cool projects you have there.

If you ever get over this way, let us know. There are a handful of HAMBers in/around Knoxville. We'll meet up somewhere.

Welcome from the ugly end of the state. I get over there pretty regularly, (like yesterday) any chance of looking at your 27? I've started a similar project, with a 4 banger. Got any connections for a pair of w/s posts or turtledeck?
I suppose you will be at the swapmeet in Feb?

Welcome to the HAMB neighbor. Like VonTingler and Harrison said, see you around. Cool roadster you have...... I got my roadster out yesterday and put on around 200 miles on it. Not a bad day for cruising in Dec. though.

I wish I was still in TN.

Maybe the government will take pity and invite me to stay next time http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
