Just signed up. Dont really have alot to say and if I did it would probably be BS anyhow. Currently wrenching on a 70 Malibu .... gonna make it one hella cool sleeper with dog dishes on the outside, bench seat inside and LS engine under the hood .... its gonna be fun. Anyhow, I promise to try not to be rude, crude or smelly but being over sixty sometimes that is a difficult promise to keep .... but I will give it a shot! Oh, by the way, I Gots a 59 Chevy Sedan Delivery which is my keeper.
Hi Sam123, Don"t let the lack of enthusiasm bother you. I also live in Ca. and like sleepers. Mine come in the form of Model A Fords but I like all kinds. Anyway WELCOME. Dick
Sam123! Welcome to the H.A.M.B. From Nor-Cal. Enjoy the site. There's all kinds here. Traditional hotrods are the topic, but you can learn and contribute to the saving and building of vintage cars of many interesting types. Welcome.
Thanks you all for the welcome. Yep all those "traditional" arguemets have been around for years ... I aint going there. Same goes for arguing politics and religion. I grew up in Southern California (the birthplace of rodding, I'll argue that one!) and am pretty familar with whats what! Living right below Dawford, about 60 miles on the 101. I try to hit that Fortuna show every year ... best damn deals at the best small swap if you ask me .. But anyhow, thanks for the welcome.
BTTT .... thought I would bring this forward since this is the first I have been in here all year!!! ...... smile damnit!
SAM123, I Just joined today and saw "SAM123" and thought I know that from somewhere. Then when I opened the post and saw the plate OH yeh! I have the same plate hanging on my shop wall.
Cool on that cool view . Welcome to this site, pretty informative and lots of memory flashbacks to be had .... enjoy. Now how common is that? ... an intro thread originator welcoming a newby? ... oh the humanity!! ... but I regress, I just BTTT'ed this thread just for grins, the newer, friendlier and happier SAM123 .... my New Years resolution! ..... lets see if I can keep smiling!!!
"Cool on that cool view" Thanks, Glad you like it. Have fun with that 59. They are hard to find without being a rust bucket.
Yep Gadget, I picked up on that ... my bad! Funny thing, that "unmentionable car" was manufactuered the very same month that I was pulling a rod-snapped flattie out of my 34 Ford PU and stuffing a SBC in. ... just an observation! LOL Maybe this "eye candy" will heal all wounds....... December 1969 ... the 327 is in just waiting for the money to get the second quadrajet on the 2x4 setup.
