Noob from Dallas, TX...well sort of!

I just wanted to re-introduce myself to everyone...

I live in Lewisville, TX (just north of Dallas) and am now a proud owner of a HAMB friendly ride. I previously had a 1963 Pro-Street Nova, and a 49 Chevy 3100...sold them both to buy a HAMB member's 49 Ford Shoebox!

I am a rookie in terms of fabrication, welding, and the traditional ways...but I am very eager to learn and become more involved with the scene and my love for older traditional rides....

I love the site...found a ton of great information and good people! Just wanted to re-introduce myself now that I am HAMB friendlier...ha ha ha!

Nice ride...you coming out to Pistons and paint?

 

Welcome. I like that car...where did it come from?

Is that bird shit all over it?

 

Actually yes...that is bird shit all over it...but to be fair..those pictures are from where I bought the car from....so I have yet to actually give her a good wash....

And the car came from bigdog928 here on the HAMB...right outside of Austin, TX...

So have no fear Fidgiter....it wont have bird shit on it for very long...

 

I am also looking for someone that has a truck and trailer and a few hours of time...that might want to make some $$ hauling the car from Jarrell, TX to either Lewisville or Corsicana TX....

Just putting that feeler out..

 

Welcome from ohio, you gotta post more pics of the car when you get it home and cleaned up.

 

That is a great looking car, even with bird shit on it.....

 

welcome to the hamb, sweet car. Whats wrong with drivin it , isn't that why we have cars?

 

Cool car!

Welcome from Irving.

Welcome and looks like you are headed in the right direction with that car.

 

Welcome (back) from Garland..............nice box.....

 

Welcome aboard!! Dang! I just left Lewisville!!!

 

Thanks every one! I am glad to be part of this message board...I am sure I will be asking a lot of newbie questions (after I use the search function of course!!!)...I have a lot to learn and I am a sponge...I love to learn!

 

Welcome!

Nice looking shoebox

 

That is a great looking car!!!! If it gets near Corsicana let me know I'd like to check it out in person. Also welcome to the HAMB!!

 

Welcome and sweet ride,,,, bird shit and all

 

Funny you say that...thats right where she's at right now...I have a buddy of mine welding in some floor pans for me (i am temporarily living in an apartment in Dallas so no 220 line!)

Hopefully this time next year the wifey and I will be living in a house! We just moved back from Buffalo, NY and didnt know where she would be working...thus we are stuck in an apartment!
