    Yes the "i" of my name is often gender specific. ?

    Well......this has been insightful for a newbie such as I, Terri, and it certainly "widens" my understanding a "tad" more of some HAMB and AACA "differences" :blink: of which I can appreciate.

    I expect to keep my "ear to the ground" and vigilant as I peruse the forum listings to increase my knowledge base.

    I like to share with my husband, Kit, the threads, its pretty cool the things that come across the site!

    Thanks guys!

    Just a clarification that is sefinately needed, but I simply forgot!

     

    When I said "when we "insist" that either site stay WAY too strict"  What I really meant in that paragraph, is"

     

    A on-topic attitude IS needed, and should be accepted by ALWAYS, by everyone, and their comments, as well as the "like" button.

     

    But, the point I missed explaining, is that both opposite types of websites, like hot rod vs Stock, MUST learn to co-exist.  Ham wins that one, hands down,  I have 10 years of participation there, and try as I may, do not ever recall any "real" animosity to the stock hobby!

     

    However, AACA is just not in the running, as I have SO many memories of not just animosity to hot rods, but many recollections of PURE and even angry HATE.  This is NOT acceptable to me!  I do not hold that against even one of these members, due/from my own state of mind. Trust me on that.  The reason I said AACA is getting closer to what "I FEEL"  to what IT should be, is that there are some definite signs that others besides me are now tying to explain that a better attitude towards modified cars will not only help our Total hobby, as far as saving, fixing up, or preserving all, or even rotted cars that might/will be junked and gone forever. 

    Appreciate your concern for the two venues of vehicle preferences!

    Being newbies to the AACA, we certainly want to acknowledge all category preferences and hope never to be a source of contention but rather encourage and uplift others. We certainly enjoy the amazing variety and variations!

    Thanks F&J !!!!

    Wow! Covelo! I use to live there; graduated 1970 from high school! I wish I had the old dodge truck my dad had and use to park on the hill in order to pop the clutch to get it started for work each morning to the saw mill. 

    That's amazing to drive it from Covelo to Ga! Or I guess u hauled it didn't ya? Silly me.....

    Hi Terry,

    Thanks so much for the welcome.

    As soon as we know where abouts we are able to fit in at Hershey Fall Meet, I'll post it :)  I am very excited; it will be my first time there and our first time to have a spot, though Kit has been to Hershey before. 

    YeeHaw!!!!

    Hi there,

    I'm Terri and new to the forum and excited to be here! My better half, Kit, and I are new members this year to AACA and did our first trade show in Philly this last Jan. It's been an exciting journey for us since Kit started making Windshield Regulators and various other parts and we're definitely looking forward to the Hershey Fall Meet :)
