Would seat belts be traditonal in a 1950's custom? I know they weren't mandated by law then, but was it a reasonably common occurrence for someone...

I'm offering myself up as a pair of "boots on the ground" in Indy for any HAMBers making the trip. If problems arise- count me as the "I know...
This is probably my favorite show in the midwest. The location is just so perfect for a traditional show. I think it was even better than last...
I have been trying to learn to gas weld sheetmetal, and quite frankly- I've been getting my ass handed to me with it. I've been almost to the...
I picked these up at a swap meet today. They have a great look, and were priced decent, but the seller wasn't sure what they are off of. It isn't...

Doing our annual trip to the Smokies and wondered if there are any shows or anything cool and car-related going on then.
