    Hi, I've been lurking for a while and decided to say hello.
    I have a 56 Ford sedan and a 72 Maverick. I have been into cars for along time. I was surprised to see how many people from Michigan that I know on here. Thanks, Tom

    Welcome to the HAMB. My first car in 1972 was a '56 Ford country sedan wagon. Always wanted another '56...... [​IMG]

    Come on in Meteor Man, the water's fine. I'll forgo the Meteor/Asteroids jokes, and I won't even mention Uranus.

    Any Pic? I mean, of your '56 Ford!!! I had a LOT of fun with my '55 Club Sedan back in high school.

    I entered a contest with Dupont and won a spot on their calendar. I took the car to St. Louis to a studio. The photographer (Floyd Dean) said I could take as many pictures as I wanted so I did (120). Here’s the shot that is on the calendar. The background is my Caddy air cleaner that safariknut stripped.
