    That's ALL-BENNY. The source of dysfunction.
     
  3. It is almost void of any 30's junkers to fix up.

    Take a ride to Brownville on rt 12f, cross the bridge go north on co rt 54, then take a right on co rt 53 (game farm rd), go about a mile and look to the right.

    I don't know if the yard is still open as the owner passed away last year. Somebody said the wife was bringing in the crusher, someone else mentioned the sons were going to get involved in running as it has been. There is 30s stuff in there,not a lot but some. Also 40's through early 70's.

  7. Yes. I was there many years ago and knew Eric a bit.He and my Dad would talk on the porch as I went part hunting.Even 15 to 20 years ago the 30's cars he had were taken over by trees.He's gone now. I bought a pair of 1940 fenders for my Master Deluxe for 75 a piece in 2000. .I like any car a man has took from a piece of crap and brought it back.My cut off is about mid to late 70's.Even then I respect the work and dedication of others.Even these kids these days with their rice tuners. I laugh when I see the big single muffler though.So I guess I ain't perfect.But thank you, Farr's has been on my mind for years.The 30 to 60's truck bodys they are lowering and chopping has also caught my eye.Thank you Plym 46 ..I stayed up 2 nights considering a deal for the 30 Ford.But I can't do it. I've been not on the road with a rod since 2000 and this Chev is going to be my return in the spring.I have most parts needed already.take Care OCND68.

    Hudson Valley...Orange County...Cornwall, to be exact. I'm originally from Los Angeles, CA but I have felt such an empty presence or rides/bikes up here. Most people whom I've talked to about this (the bigger named clubs) want you to be a Hang Around, Prospect, then after much deliberation, a Member. WTF, when did the scene turn into the Hells Angels?!?!?! I already got jumped into a gang when I was a kid, I'm a f*%^*n grown man now, I'm not going to wash your Ol Lady's car! Hahahahaha.
    Anyway, I'll take the lead on this if no one else want's to, and come up with some guidelines reminiscent of older pre-war car/bike clubs.

    When I was a kid, I would look at the map of New York in school and thought the state was just the burroughs (where all the "attractions" were). I thought everything else was Canada!

    I'll join a club. Remember NY state is pretty big, we would most likely have to split it into regions.

    Shall I pick a historic "defunct"club from years gone by, or make a new one up? If I need to make one, suggestions?

    Sounds like you're a good candidate for Chapter President.

    Do they have a Airport w/Paved runway ?

    Yes there is a paved strip, outside Herkimer, it where they ship the diamonds from, but it only about 20 miles to the west is the former Griffis Air Force Base, they used to handle little stuff like KC10 Extenders and those pesky little B 52's, so pretty sure you might be able to land anything in your inventory there.

    I might have mentioned this before, but a few of us in Putnam County have a loose-knit hot rod / motorcycle club - if the guidelines/rules wind up being in line with ours, I could hold a vote to merge our club into a larger one and head up the Putnam County chapter if needed. It depends on whether or not you'd want other sorts of vehicles in addition to traditional hotrods (like bobbers or other sorts of semi-traditional bikes). Send me a PM if you want. We need more Kulture up in this area for sure.

    Howdy! yea thats right I said Howdy what of it? lol Originally from Waste-chester county (peekskill to be exact) did a short stint in Houston Texas now happily married and residing in Dutchess county (la grange/poughkeepsie border) I would be down to hook up with a club for sure. I rolled with a club in Houston and we would bracket race friday nights. the H.A.S.T.E guys and I always had a blast. I've been looking for some kool kats to run around with since I moved away from my old stomping grounds.

    Dude, everytime I go into Canada through Niagara I hate that last stretch of highway. I can't imagine anyone ever getting use to that stink. Just like you said between Buffalo and Niagara.
