just wanted to say hi, this a great forum with SO MUCH INFO!!!!!! It is amazing what is on here, I have learned so much from lurking. Below is a pic of my 37 dodge touring that I will be starting in the spring.
Welcome from colorado. I built a 37 dodge awhile back mild custom, with a serious chop. All my friends said I was CRAZY. But what a fun car to cruise in. Good luck...ghost
Man I Just posted a thread looking for help on a chop. I really need some help deciding where to make my first cuts. Do you have any advice slash pics on how you did your chop.
Welcome from Sugar Land, come by the HAMB cruise on Sunday at the Darkhouse on Washington near downtown. 1st Sunday of every month.
Welcome from another Houstonian! Neat project! By the way, I love the bumper. I hear blue is the new chrome! I see Trans Am wheels, what suspension set-up is under that thing?
thanks for the welcome guys, I'm going to try to start making it to the dark horse. It has a mustang II up front, and a four link in the rear. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the Mustang II though. It also has a sbc under the hood, and that might go as well. Possibly a slant six, but I haven't d ecided yet.
Another hello from Houston. Hope you are keeping that car covered here in Houston. I myself keep trying to get to the darkhorse, maybe someday.
I mentioned to my wife about the Dark Horse this Sunday and she said 'Those must be diehard car guys to do that on Super Bowl Sunday!' I said 'Exactly, they're my kind of people!' Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to make it this time, have a family function.
i definettly keep it covered, I do have a 39 plymouth body for the rot replacement that I haven't covered yet though
Born and raised in Houston, now live only 20 short miles in the Baytown/Highlands area. WELCOME! I'm am a newb here too, but gotta say I LOVE this place! I'm hopin' to get the ol' Chrysler out this weekend or next and head up to the Darkhourse to meet some of the other fellow HAMBers. Have no desire to watch the games, would rather be wrenchin'! ~MyDeSoto~
I don't have any pictures in the computer right now. But I'll try to get them loaded for ya. The chop wasn't too hard, and since you have another car for donor parts, It will be a lot easier. I chopped mine 5 inches. But there are some details, I am sure I could help you with. I have chopped 2 dodges, and one plymouth. all more doors. and my dodge was the first car I chopped. that's why I said my friends thought I was crazy...ghost
