Hello people, here comes Freddie Sanders, a original from the "Class of '57". I served hitch in the U.S. Air Force, at Griffiss AFB, Rome, NY. Then returned home to Ft. Worth, Tex. "It was party time". Placed a "ring" on the boss's (Donna) finger in '63 (sure put a slow down on the "hell rasin'). We have 4 children, and 10 grand children (love them much more than "any old pile of rusted tin and iron"). Hell yes! I have the "afflication", it all started in 1955 with a 1942 Chrysler New Yorker convertible, and haven't had a "sane" day since. Oh how I hate accumulating old and unusual "junk". I guess I"m the same as most Hambers, sharing the love for the smell of "oil fumes" (if you're old enuff), the smell of "burning rubber", and slapping gears on a 4 speed. I hope I can make it to the Denison meet, and get the chance to meet some of you "Hambers"
I hope some of that old and unusual junk you've collected includes an early Hemi. I'm right down the road, I live in Grapevine. Heck, I work in Ft Worth, at N 820 and Beach St.
[ QUOTE ] you make my eyes hurt trying to read that mess [/ QUOTE ] <font color="green">What he meant to say was... "Hi, welcome to the HAMB. My parents raised me without any social graces so you will have to forgive me." Punctuation could use a little work though. Just what the world needed, another TEXAS HAMBer. Welcome and don't PM me Draglinks, you know I love you. RASHY P.S. Watch out for THEM! </font>
thank you for the welcome Rashy. If it was not for this "Texas Hamber", no one would think of you as a "cooool dude". And what are "Them" ? Something I slap away from me, while in the woods?

alter ego? Wow! Thank you for the welcome PorknBeaner. Hey, I'm old school too, I just haven't made enuff post to get the title.
Titles don't mean much. I coulda been famouse but decided that being a hot rodder was good enough for me. I figured I counted as old 'til I saw when you graduated. I was just a little kid when you were getting started.
