Another new guy from BC Canada

[hudsonhotrod]

Well after some good natured ribbing about being a lurker around here by a fellow member and friend I thought I'd better do the right thing and put up an intro. The name is Ken and I live in the central interior of BC up here in Canada. I have had this obsession about motorized things since I can remember. Never been one for shiny paint and chrome wheels, rough around the edges hot rods and customs are what gets my blood pumpin! Current ride is a chopped '30 Hudson 3W coupe, it's a little rough and was built on the cheap but is built with safety in mind as I want to try and run it on the salt flats one day.

HAHAHA! Thanks Bruce, guess that's what I need sometimes is a good ol "kick" start! And ya, I have a ton of build pics if anyone wants to have a look see what keeps us northern guys busy in the long cold winters

Thanks for all the welcomes guys! I am looking forward to scooping and sharing ideas with y'all. I have a bunch of build pics of the Hudson that I will sort out and put in a build thread. It's only been on the road for a year but I already have plans to change a few things including a motor swap to a 324 Olds Rocket. Talk to you later guys. Ken

Thanks, haven't been around here long but seems like there are lots of cool folks that hang out here. Looking forward to learning a bunch around here and hopefully helping out where I can. I have a bunch of pics of the build as well as it's first summer on the road and will try to start a build thread this weekend.

Thanks Cowboy. I built it with what I had kickin' around and what I needed I traded stuff for and did a bunch of work on other guys hot rods in exchange for getting things like the glass and exhaust done. Total out of pocket money is just a touch over $3100.00.
