I am just starting to go on the HAMB a little more so I can communicate with others. I am always in the garage building cars, go-karts, motorcycles, vintage bmx. I am into alot of shit. I always say, you only live once, make it great for the time you are here.

I will say with complete honesty that this is the most informative and knowledgeable board I have ever been on. But it's not without its whiny cunts who just like to dump on everything. Seems to be less of that over the past couple of years, though.

As for hot rods, I know precisely Dick, except that if I did want to learn about them this is the only place worth coming to.

Paul, Nice touch to my original thread and you are right on. I spoke to these guys for about 15 minutes and still did not have time to tell the story about HAMB ANDY, which was the turning point to me becoming an ALLIANCE MEMBER just to help support the HAMB. "Cheery O", old chap. Larry

and another thing you have to warn people about, a buddy of mine said that it seems like the more post you have the more of an expert you are. granted i have learned alot but to me your experiance in the car culture should not be based on how many post you have made

Yes, I've got my balls busted especially when I first joined. Seems like there's a "Click" of guys that think that they are "The last word" and can Zap you. I did get some private emails from people that agreed with me, and then after a while I started meeting some great members!

Hats off to the HAMB and all the believers that are spreading the word about Hot Rods, Customs, tech, art, everything. This website is all of that and more. It has provided me with tech from other HAMBers. It is a great experience to share the knowledge.

Great thread Larry. Where did you get the HAMB tag? I gotta get one, or more for my rides!

Kill a black widow spider? That is a waste of a little friend. Gently scoop it into a container and turn it loose on the moron neighbor's front porch, where it can do some good.

Joe, I got it right here on the HAMB a couple of years ago, I dont think they are available now, but I also heard there is a movement to have some more produced???? Larry.

If you have to explain it chances are they won't understand.

Now if only your shop was open on the weekend when some of us can make it in to a shop!!
Unfortunatly I work all the days your shop is open or I would come by and probably discover something that I didn't even know I needed!

I told my non computer using car buddies to imagine standing in a garage the size of a huge stadium.Filled with guys that are car crazy and all talking cars you can ask the most off the wall question and someone will have the answers you need .Its a tech manual , advice column product review board and a never ending car magazine that everone adds to the articles. A few that told me I was wasting time have had me find answers on here .

I actually had to explain it to a co-worker of mine today when he asked me why i was so intentively staring at my phone for long lengths of time( On the HAMB at work on my phone). Took me a few minutes to explain it, everything from the advice, techs, clasifieds, to the ass chewings that some people get when they get out line! As everyone can tell, I dont post very much or reply, mainly just "listen" in on ALL of the really great knowledge everyone on here has. I would have an alliance membership for sure by now but feel like I need to "earn my keep" I thank everyone for the time they put in on this thing... good and bad!!!

It's many things to me. Being stuck growing up between the late 50's and the muscle car era, I've never found cars I didn't appreciate.

It's a melting pot of tastes. Customs, stockers, hot rods, they're all here.

It's the best damn "How do ya do.........." place to get tips and help.

It values tradition and friendships !

And......if you're having/had a totally fucked up day and need some comic relief........any photo of Breeder WILL make you laugh your damn ass clean off!!!!!

Sorry Toddles.........I had to say it......
