I am not a member of the Hamb and wouldnt anytime soon, just reading some of the things said to so called newbies was enuff to put me off.
They are for the most part totally intolerant of anything that doesnt fit the so called traditional type cars they favour, so much for individuality in hot rodding.
The HAMB is for narrow minded intolerant jerks, or at least it sure seems that way....MAYBE its a case of a few bad apples, but PROBABLY not........John

Remember there are a whole bunch of 15 yr old posers over there - The closest that they have gotten to a car is Mom's Dodge Mini Van

I do a lot of reading over there. There are some amazing guys doing some amazing things. It does get hard to ignore all the "old skool" jerk offs who get off and being rude and abrasive though

It looks like you were asking about parts for your Mustang? That wouldn't fly, it's pre-'64 only.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion.....but I think the Hamb is great! Sure there are some rules, and some A holes, but the technical advise and the creative talent is UNMATCHED to any where that I have found. And yes, I have gotten "reamed out" a couple of times for posting stupid stuff, but I don't take it personally. You gotta have a thick skin.
FTE is definately more sunshine and daisies...but I like them both

Take it for what it is and understand the purpose is for traditional style rods. There is tremendous amount of good information and some great technical articles. It used to be much worse on newbies and had less posers. I wish it still was like the old days and weeded out the ones that could not take it. I have been on there over 10 years, although not as much lately since it just moves too fast to keep up. Since it is free and you can choose to go on there by your choice, do what you want.

I used to work for AOL as a chat room host and a message board monitor. After that experience, I can pretty much take anything that anyone can dish out, anywhere.

allot of good info over there. Just have to wade thru the b.s, ignore the ******'s and go on. Its a great place to check out the different build threads and i really enjoy allot of the picture threads. but spend most of my time here. where the folks are like family, and even if they don't care much for the direction your going with your truck, they will still help if they can.

I frequent the HAMB, you gotta remember theres more trafic on that site than this one thus lots more opinions, there`s a lot of great builds and lots of talent on that site, when your darksiding a truck like mine its nice to go to sites like that to get insparation, different ideas on different brand of vehicles, sometimes you can pick up tricks or a mod someone did on their vehicle and apply it to your f100, on that site 65 and up vehicles are taboo, efi is iffy but there starting to accept it.
Sorry they jumped on you like that, there`s always one A** that has to ruin it for the rest
