Hi Everyone! I just joined up to CHR, and wanted to say hello! I currently have a 65 Corvair Convertible (Bright Red) that is a daily driver, and am working on a 53 Studebaker pickup, which will eventually be a great little ride! I look forward to chatting with all of you, it sounds like there are all kinds of great projects out there that you are working on !

Welcome to CHR Hot Rod Angel
Got some pitures of your projects. I think there are a few Studebaker pickup fans here.

Hey Pro - I don't have any pics handy right now...I'll have to get some scanned in, so everyone can see what we're doing with the Studebaker ! We stretched the cab 7.5", to make more leg room, among other modifications...It is going to be a real looker when it's done! From what I've read here so far, you have a sign shop...is that right? I own a sign shop too, and we also do engraving & a bit of embroidery. I like to do vehicle graphics best, and pinstriping (vinyl only, right now, I am wanting to learn how to do "the real thing" !)

Welcom to CHR Misty. Your 53 sounds like a great project. Can't wait to see some pictures.

THANKS FOR THE WARM WELCOME GUYS ! It's nice to be able to talk shop like "one of the guys"...

Yup.... I've had a sign shop for 'bout 20 yrs. I do vinyl, Engraving CNC Routing, Large format printing, Some heat transfers, and a little screen printing (When I Have To).

I usta' do custom painting, pinstriping, I do it occasionally as a hobby now for immediate family only.

A Stretched Stude no less, hope to see pics. soon.

Well put up with you. After all, i just hit 500 posts, so they put up with almost anyone! Welcome to the club, and feel free to ask anything.

turning wrenches is not gender bias, anyone and everyone that doesn't mind a little grease or a busted knuckle is welcome

Welcome and hello this is great I love to see lady's into cars

Welcome Hot Rod Angel, Have fun, enjoy the site and post pics when you can and also keep us updated on the '53 stude pickup.

Thanks everyone! I hope to get some pics posted soon...I'm really excited to show off my "baby" ! I just love working on this Stude project...I learn something new every time I work on it...I am getting pretty handy with a cutting wheel, grinder, and I know my way around the tool box fairly well, too. This project is in memory of my dad...we spent many an afternoon dreaming of what this truck could look like...I hope that it will become something that he would have approved of! I hope to learn all about the engine & how all that stuff works too, right now I don't know much about all that! Good thing that my husband is a very patient man!

Well, it sounds like boys will be boys, and I'll try to keep up with you guys, I'd like to think that I can hold my own pretty well when it comes to giving people a hard time...Once I get warmed up, you guys might be runnin' for cover!
