Happy Birthday CRC. Like Don, this is my first internet stop in the morning and last at night.
I joined when I was first starting on my 37 Dodge.......but that's another story.
Thanks to everyone for making this the site it is especially those behind the scenes.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

Happy Birthday and thanks for all that it takes to keep it going.
A friend of mine in Ontario Canada told me about it and sent me the link. it seemed friendly enough, so I stayed. I have been able to meet a few and has been a lot of fun. There are a lot of really good people here!

Happy Birthday, and thanks Brent, been a heck of a good trip so far!!!!!!!!!!
My fondest memory from CHR concerns a true gentlemen Hot Rodder, a master of the understated, and a very skilled yet modest builder!!!! I don't ever remember him having anything but kind words and ecouragement for anyone and everyone on here! For those of you a bit too new here to remember him, you missed having the opportunity to know one hell of a fine man!!! I can honestly say that my life is certainly better for having known him.

RIP, my friend.....

[QUOTE=Bob Parmenter;422572]Well..........a surprise to most of you anyway.
We may not be the biggest, but the ol' site just keeps pluggin' along. People come, people go. Some post a lot (helps to be Norwegian), some, not so much.

Hey, I resemble that comment!!!! My ancestors were boat builers in some little fishing town in Norway, so maybe my addiction to Hot Rodding is some sort of genetic thing??? Betcha they snuck in a racing hull from time to time!!! As for the post count, I've got a lot to say but I can't remember what it was so I just keep rattling it along and maybe what I meant to say will come back to me someday?Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Happy Birthday to CHR...I have only been a member for a few years,but its the most user friendly site I have seen so far,,no back biting,scratchin,name calling...etc.And from where I am sitting,no attitudes..I found this site through Johnboy,indirectly..Had a lurk or three,then thought,yeah,why not..
Its also my first stop in the morning,and last stop at night,for a laugh,or some valuable info,from the many experienced guys on here..I also enjoy throwing pics on too,to show you guys[and gal]whats happening down here.The build logs are very interesting,and I am amazed at the workmanship and detail.I think the one big thing that warms me to this place is the openness,frankness,and trouble sharing that goes on here..This does not/will not happen on the other sites I am a member of..Even though I have not met any of you,[apart from Roger,Blow by]and only talked briefly to Ken Thurm when he came out here a couple of years ago,I feel that we are all pretty good mates.Any way,gotta thank Brent for the site,,and Bill for watching over us..kool guys,,keep it up..Micah 6:8

Happy Birthday CHR and thanks to Bret and good luck to him on the new site he has launched.
I joined after I started the coupe in 05, since I had not done a build in 40 plus yrs. I knew I would need some help. I don't post like I used to but when I do I get the needed help.
A great ( better than most) group to be associated with.Don D

How lame I am...late to the birthday celebration! You know, I have as much fun on the interwebs today as ever. I'm not the greatest personality in person so I do what I can to make up for it online. I do enjoy building stuff. It appears that building cars and building communities is what I like to do. Someday I'll retire and be able to do it full time. Really wish I could do that today, but...reality.
Bob, thanks for noticing and taking the time to share it with the group. Everyone, thanks for the kind words personally and your sharing of the experiences...Its nice to see people enjoying the place.
Also, thanks to Bill for all his efforts!
Here's to another 10! Also, I hope you all notice the server has been much better lately! Progress is good!Brent Mills

Happy birthday Chr. I found this site through Tech and although my knowledge and expertise is limited there are many here who are not and the wealth of information is for the most part limitless. Some day, God willing, I intend to meet Uncle Bob in person to find out where he's hiding all of the beauties he's always posting for Don.Ken Thomas

started out rough, for sure, seen, done, learned, met alot since i 1st joined, seen a few friends pass as well, i still thinking about them anytime i am wrenching.
glad to be apart of the site since 04, jesus when you say it like that, as much stuff that has happened in my life since 2004 would be eough to fill a book. i keep coming back because some of you were there for me in those tough times, still are and i respect that and will do so until i die. funny how a website can bring so many people together all over the world and we treat each other like our friends in real life, when one doesnt come one for awhile we worry. its a big happy family, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

I found this site four years ago and I always check in a few times a day. You guys have not only gave me hours of entertainment looking at your cars but have been pretty good friends as well.
A "skip" = a dumpster.... but he says it's proper english??? Oh.. Okay. Most of us can see the dating site pun, "matching" with an arsonist.. But a "SKIP? How is that a box? It must all be...
