    Did a search and didn't find a thread for Bragg HAMBers. How many Vets are out there working on stuff in or around Fayetteville, NC. SOUND OFF!

    PRIMER DAVE, All the Way!! I'm in the Deuce and proud to be a paratrooper!

    Jalopy Jim, you must be proud of your daughter.

    Steve-Cook, Served with alot of Marines, real good guys, they kept me alive in the jungle in Okinawa. Harder than Woodpecker lips they were.

    Yeah, Still not much in the way of Traditional Hot Rodding or R#@ Rods even. Lots of Bike stuff. I've seen Bobbers and Choppers, but mostly stock Bikes. Muscle Cars reign supreme round here. Still, you find older guys that will talk your ear off about the good ol' days, and that is the coolest. Talked to an ol' timer the other day about using a bicycle pump to "pressurize" the gas tank while driving up hill in his buddy's "Jalopy".
