Well after lurking for about a month or so and getting some registration issues worked out with Ryan I have finally started to jump in with both feet here at HAMB.

To give you some backround my first project was a 69 Suburban way back 25 years ago at 16. After I blew her up I went on to a Gremlin which we dropped in a V8 just for fun. As time would pass I started a three years ago 66 Mustang which was finished last year and looks stock accept for some goodies under the hood 351W.

My 10 year old son Levi and I are now working on the 29 Model A pictured here. I will be dropping in a 53 Merc Flathead and chopping the top 3". We hope to have her done by next summer.

I got some great inspiration from trekking out the CA to the 2003 Billetproof show. Thanks to Kirk for all the hospitality.

In June of last year I ran accross an amazing find of lost parts from the 30's to the mid 60's. It was a salvage yard which aperated from 1934 to 1964. The parts were all stripped from the cars, tagged and put in bins inside this huge warehouse. It has been locked for approx. 35 years I bought the whole inventory lock stock and barrel. And yes its all for sale.

Its been great watching you farts for the last month and it is time for me to jump in. Thanks for the oppertunity.

Welcome Levis Classic. Nice coupe for your project. Definitely not a 29. It's 30-31 body and a 30 grille shell. Is it titled as a 29? Keep us posted as to your progress. Nice engine choice as well.

Welcome,
Looks like we need to help you with an Inventory party.

For every 500 parts you identify and tag you get to take something home..... When's the party.
