This is the ONLY site you'll need:

One warning: Read the forum rules, post an intro, use the 'Search" feature and be respectful. These guys are hard core hotrodders, will give you more help and advice than you can handle, but a newbee has to earn their respect.

We're probably making the HAMB sound rougher than it really is. I have a bunch of friends there who are likely mad at me for NOT logging in more often... What you have to remember is that are more than a few guys there who were building rods in the '50s. They know their game well and once they learn that you're truly serious about traditional hot rods, these dudes will bend over backward to help. That's why I mentioned the Search function. Before you ask a question, run a search. You'll never believe the amount of good info in the archives over there.

Thanks for the input. I actually have been in other forums where the blast the newbies just because. LOL, I read the forums firts then ask questions. LOl I have been a Ford Tech for 15 years and I always went by the motto There is always someone better and smarter than you so dont be a jerk and think you know it all. LOL

[Welcome to FM!

Show us the 29 will ya?

HAMB isn't the only place that will welcome your car!

This book will help you.

Amazon.com: How to Build a Traditional Ford Hot Rod, Revised Ed.: Mike Bishop, Vern Tardel, Steve Amos: Books

That book is a must have plus his website has a lot of good parts. I just sold my galaxie, and bought a 30 Ford Coupe. Ive been on the hamb for a while now, it has a TON of really good stuff. I found it a few years ago while looking for stuff on my 54 belair. Plus if your going to be buying a lot of parts sign up for the Alliance, you will save a ton of cash.

No book is a MUST HAVE when building a hot rod, if you have (now imagine a pretty rainbow ) Imagination

Man o man that is one ugly lookin truck.
