    Its been awhile, some will remember my name and others will wonder who is this guy. for those that dont know me, I was around in the early days when this board was small and in constant change in looks. A few yrs ago I got into a funk and found my taste wondering form the traditional/ early stuff and wondering into the 60s and 70s rides so I slowly found myself on Facebook to satisfy my desire for later model info. After going thru a cosworth vega and a 70s camaro I have found myself lost and missing the old stuff and the people I meet on here. I still have my 51 chevy hardtop and a 53 chevy wagon (not my original red and white one some people knew me for) I have been driving and working on it the last few years. I have a 68 impala convert to satisfy my late model desire and rare sunny days in the NW and been collecting parts for a 26 ford Modified. This year has been crazy and I think I need to get back to my roots and back to my love of early stuff. I plan to spend more time here in 2021 and seeing some old friends. The wagon remains my main focus right now as this winter I am doing more upgrades. motor transplant, just had it woodgrained and will be finally finishing the interior.. My 51 remains stalled out, limited funds are for the wagon but hopefully 2021 will be the years I get back on it and once done the Modified project will get its time again...

  7. Welcome back my friend, I met Ken at the Charlotte Goodguys in 2002 before I joined the Hamb, It was Ken's first wagon that inspired me to drag the Ranch Wagon out of the barn.

    I was there in my old 1932 4 door sedan.

    It was also Ken & Randy( Deuce Roadster) that convinced me to join the hamb .

    BTW, Ken has a ton of photo's from many shows over the years, Good to have you back where you belong. HRP

    I remember this car well.

    You can always come back home! I also have varied interests in cars and in fact like pretty much all cars. I accept this site for what it is, the exceptional talent, knowledge but don’t let it limit my appreciation for other forms of the car hobby and racing venues.
