H.A.M.B. pick TOP 10 for 2003.....NOMINATION time

[TINGLER]

...............

[Deyomatic]

I nominate Metalshapes's Model A Roadster. McCulloch supercharger, 283, Unibody...
I'm not on my home computer, or I'd post a pic.

[Kilroy]

Can I Nominate two?

RickyRacer's buddy's red 32 Roadster with the wide-5 wheels

[Kilroy]

or

That little 32 PU that Keith Tardel built for a hamber...

[Fat Hack]

I'm gonna throw in a nomination for one of my favorite HAMB rods...

...Kulturepimp's rad 38 Ford truck!

I dug this thing so much I made a trip down to Indy to see it in person!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Not finished...but he was driving it this year!

I like it cuz:

It's rough, raw and rusty

It's got FE (390) Ford power

It's different...stands out from the crowd!

[36couper]

all modesty aside.....

[Kilroy]

But then again, what about Cleatus' bitchin sled...

[ratster]

Lukester wins! his '34 chevy truck is bad ass!

[Bugman]

How could you overlook the BFD, or the drag n fly?

[Rocket88]

I'm with 40 Phil.
Cleatus' ride is the shit!!!

[Tuck]

bleedster?

[Kilroy]

I can't remember their Hamb Names...

Someone please help!

[Smokin Joe]

The HAMB Digger Killer should be on the list too.
And the outlaw bodied beast by Mori.

[Homeresque]

The roadster is KV's.

[Tuck]

its still this year.. i think he just got the interior done.. and i assume its running but I dont think hes "driven" it anywhere... i just read your info on top and that prob doesnt fit the requirements~~

[41sled]

Ill have to go with fat hack on this one... That truck is fugn' awesome ...

[ratster]

So what does the winner get? A VonTingler custom Air Brush painted T-shirt with his or her car on it? VonTingler?

[NealinCA]

[/ QUOTE ]

He is HotRodVon on the HAMB I think.

The 34 p/u belongs to 50Fraud.

You can't forget Zibo's rpu...

[Bob K]

Lukester's truck, don't have a pic but it is one kick ass truck.

B http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif B

[OGNC]

Zibo's truck is rad, but I have to cast my vote for Cleatus.

Cleatus, Cleatus, Cleatus!!! I love that car. And when you consider what a bucket that thing was when he hauled it home it is all the more amazing!

[hatch]

Is there still time to paint the wheels red on my 45???? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[ratster]

your welcome !!!!

[mytlo56]

So we can't count Cole's stuff because it is built for others?

If that's the case I'll go w/ The Cleatus.

[tommy]

How about the yellow A roadster with the riveted patch panels. First seen at Vern Tardells. Sorry about not remembering the name.

[surf monkey]

cleatus closely followed by anything by moriarty ....anything you create off the top of your head never has a standard to adhere to(apart from your own obviously)....clone something and standards have already been set...and that man hits the standard every time...just my opinion http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

monkey

ps. i forgot to say coles my hero in both the car and the bike world

[trailer-Ed]

How about this one? Done this year and also featured for R&C.

[trailer-Ed]

another shot.

[trailer-Ed]

No no name, just Trailer Ed's car I guess. I hated to nominate myself, but I feel really proud of that car!

[Scribe]

I gotta agree with Deyomatic... Metalshapes car is totally awesome. After gawking at it for a while at the GG Scottsdale show, I had to walk the next few aisles bent over, sorta like ya did when you got a peek up that pretty girls skirt who sat across from you in math class.

[Scribe]

Of course if plastic fantastic counts...

[Anderson]

LUKESTER.

then Metalshapes.

Moriarty finished the Outlaw clone this year, right? He's 3rd.

[briggs&strattonChev]

metalshapes, then cleatus (that "hardtop" RULES)

[lownrusty]

the HDK

[fatassbuick]

I don't see any way for me to pick one I "like the best" out of these cars....they're all kick ass, no shit (although I must've missed hatch's Harley).

[jdubbya]

I have a late nomination, I hereby nominate flatheadpete's "Peter Beater" I only have an old pic, but this bucket is on the road, and running strong! It was officially roadworthy in November of this year. Flathead, s-10 5 speed, 16" front wheels, 18"rears. The car was built on a budget, with other peoples leftovers, and it turned out pretty frickin cool!

[derelict]

Kevens' '32 should be the hands down number one with Zibos' truck as number two. Kevens' it tits and Zibos is nuts.

[whizzerick]

The Bleedster's ass is finer than Jennifer Lopez' and Britney Spears' ass bolted TOGETHER! I have not seen pics in quite a while. It had a cardboard windshield then, I think...

[RileyRacing]

Is that metalflake sedan of the pedestrian killers a hambers? that is a kickass car too...

if not, I vote for lukesters truck, or petes bucket, or... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Jay

[bobbleed]

Nope Bleedster hasn't run yet, but I still have a week......

Actually I took it straight to "Chris the Interior Maniac"'s place straight after the Pile Up and just got it back a couple of weeks ago. The interior is amazing.

It will be finished within a month complete with a super secret mix of candy........... so I guess it's out of the running. Thanks though.

I could have just put the thing on the road a bunch of times, but I keep getting caried away and I want it to be FINISHED when I drive it.


I would have voted for Luke's truck if he wasn't such a fucking Crybaby GIRL. boo hoo.

I'll vote for the kid from Ca who got that graffiti covered 52-54 Ford on the road. I can't remember his name. Anyway that's pretty cool for a young kid.

[slazzen]

my vote is for cleatus then zibo

[skyspop]

I vote for lukester also,I haven't seen alot of these cars in person,but his truck is BADASS,besides I'm a sucker for W motors,and his has the balls...Definately Rocks...

[hatch]

Hey Von tinkler...I've been bustin ass on that bike...probably got at least 30 hours in in already!!!...sure has been a fun project...I actually rode it today and got it into second gear....sure hope third gear works....fun with wheels!!!!

[hatch]

SHIT...I'll be right back "Mr. Von Tingler"...(sir)....gotta go get a six pack at the corner store...should need third gear to get there....wish me luck...no plate, insurance, helmet, brains.

[hatch]

Welll....when I looked at the bike(before buying it), the clutch was froze (disengaged), so I couldnt kick it over...the extra engine wouldn't turn over and I thought I might end up with a rolling basket case. But, I bought it right and figured I could always get my money back. I never thought I would get it running and driving without spending any money. So...how do I feel...FAN-FUCKINGTASTIC!!!!....come on spring!!!

[hatch]

I know of at least ONE vote I'll get....

[abe lugo]

I didn't know you can nominate yourself,SCRIBE. hahah
The pedestrain killers flaked gold sedan was on the road last year

[Rainer]

ready too! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif - damn a lot of cool cars finnished this year dudes

http://berg.heim.at/kaprun/431934/umbenennbar1/fl10.jpg

[Hot Rod Ron]

My vote is for Metalshapes roadster hands down. This car is so off the charts of what is going on in the car world that it is not funny. I say this not just becuse he is one of my closest friends, but this car is going to change how people build and drive these's cars. If any of you get a chance to see this car I hope you have the same reaction as Vern Tardell did at the so-cal open house. My 2 cents anyway and my vote.

[Grumpy]

well, I'll vote for my buddy Jeff. goes by "Road Hound" on HAMB. Doesn't post much, computer is big POS.. car is called BellFlower Buick, it was bought in March03, finished end of may03

[hotrodladycrusr]

I'd like to nominate Roadstar's new 40 Ford. Was just completed earlier this month. Pictures don't even do it justice. The details are stunning. He did everything himself sans interior which was done by "The Mad Pleater". Rudy is one of the most talented hot rod builders I have ever met.

http://photo.starblvd.net/~hotrodladycrusr/6-3-5.jpg

http://photo.starblvd.net/~hotrodladycrusr/6-5-4.jpg

[Scribe]

Wow, that '40 is totally bitchin.

I love the Bellflower Buick, in fact we named him a Young Gun of the Month. Totally bitchin' car built on a shoestring budget by a young guy... ya gotta respect that.

[SamIyam]

HOLD THE PRESS!!!

I nominate Jay Ward's Ain't Lackin' '29 Model A highboy roadster! With the early Caddy OHV motor... somebody... get me a pic! As far as period traditional cars go... his is right up there in detail, stance etc.

Also, we need to scrounge up pics of all the nominees... should make the survey/voting mo' fun...

So here's a pic of Sam Strube and Tim Sage's Bomb Factory Digger...

[Kulturepimp]

Thanks.. Better pic of my truck

[Travis]

Have we all got a short memory?

EvilFordCoupe.

Travis

[slamchop]

How about my 33 plymouth?Might need help posting pic cause I suck!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

[SamIyam]

Wholly SHIT!

That evil Ford coupe gets MY VOTE!!

That thing is BAD ASS!!

How come we haven't seen mo' of it???
Sam.

[roadster36]

Without a doubt, the chopped '36 3-window coupe with the Ardun motor that Keith Tardel did. That car has it all. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Travis]

EvilFordCoupe is Jason here on the HAMB... EvilFordCoupe! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Nastiest little motherfucker out there and he intends to make this a street legal thing.


Travis

[roadster36]

Ryan knows

[Mai Ki-Ki]

...great list..i second the 53/54 ford that was a pile of shit with a gold dick on ths side...which is now...looking pretty damn good!

maiki

[franzfrucket1]

I thought I saw that 33 plymouth on egay.........Im sorry if it didnt sell oh and I know someone already did it but I say the bleedster...I saw the thing in person just a few days ago and I nearly slipped on my own drool

[DrJ]

I think they are all great cars and every one of them is a tribute to this crazy hobby, fantasy, craze, addiction, obsession of ours.
SO I'm not going to insult everybody but one by voting on anyone of them.
They're all BITCHIN! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[RPW]

"Of course it doesn't have to be painted or any such nonsense as that...." Sounds like rockasilly attitude!

I see alot of neat cars, most of them in progress. Of the finished ones: The Tardel built 34 Pick-Up and Mark´s Outlaw clone. And yes, the 36 cpe Keith built is also on my list. But my number one is the Chevy that Cole built for Ness... (and next years will probably be the coupe Cole is building right now...)

[BARNETT]

Roadstar's 40, Cleatus' Sled, the Bellflower Buick. Those are some really DONE rides! I am also kinda partial to Root's Drag-N-Fly for some reason though. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif But I haveta say "CONGRATS!" to everyone that put wheels on the road this year. Hopefully I can have something on next year's list. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[RPW]

Von Tingler: I know my stuff for sure, do you?
What I did mean was the "or any such nonsense as that...." part of what you wrote. That do sound "Rockasilly"!
I sure can appriciate a car in primer as well, and of course I know that several of the mentioned cars are "finished" in its primer stage. But I am no big fan of the attitude that a primered car is better than a painted one, just because its primered...

[RPW]

In that case... OK since its Christmas!
(but I wont change my mind...)

[Jeff Norwell]

EVILFORDCOUPE!!!!!!!!!!!!MORE PICS,MORE PICS!!!!!!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

[Sam F.]

heres,a pick of my Farm Truck..its not pretty! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gifi drug just a rusty old cab home in febuary and had it on the road in november,all for less than $2000.00
http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/image_uploads/234627-deathrod1.JPG

first off,its great being nominated,thanks Von Tingler(your checks in the mail http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif),but there are way to many bitchin rides out there that hit the streets this year,as long as its not a black primmered 4 dr red wheeled LTD,then they're all great!

the best part i love is seeeing these cars come together on the HAMB.someone dragging them home and then building them here on the HAMB.i love it

[Roothawg]

I feel honored just to be mentioned.....Cleatus gets my vote.

[raven]

Well,
It's not much but it qualifies...

[Smokin Joe]

Well, If we're gonna allow bikes...

[Iceberg]

I finished it in June & have had a great time with it since.

[Byron Crump]

Mine was finished this year also, but is has a small block chevy in it with vortec heads thus generating much scorn from the masses (thats a joke http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif).

[Plowboy]

Wow, I appreciate the mention, but my truck is not done yet. I guess it did run under its own power though (233 miles before my rear axle bearing let go on the interstate). It is currently in preparation for a spiffy shiny paint job and the motor is torn apart getting a new set of "special" heads. I guess you can strike me from the list too!

It is difficult to say who's stuff is the coolest though. If there are 3000 members you will get 3000 different opinions. My vote goes for Lukester.

I still wouldn't mind having an Original Von Tingler shirt Though! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[roadstar]

Plowboys truck RULES.

I can't wait to see it "Finished"

We might have to change this to the top 100

[38Chevy454]

Well, I did finish my modified and get it running this year, but it certainly is nowhere near the top of the list compared to the outstanding cars on here.

[Deyomatic]

I don't think anyone mentioned Choprods's "Bel Camino" yet. That definately belongs on the list of candidates.
It is a kickass car...er..truck...er.custom....er hot rod?

[wayfarer]

I can't believe people are nominating thier own cars! I finished my first custom this year too and I'm proud of it,but geez. My vote goes for Cleatus, that car is awesome.

[FeO2]

Terry,Where have you been hiding that beautiful car? I love it.If I had to vote on One favorite car...I would have to go with Cleatus.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[slamchop]

Well I thought I had the cheapest car on here,you got me beat Butt Reynolds.I got $2600 in mine,(body was $200 from a guy in the desert).Built mine in 2 1/2 months,how about top 10 low buck rods for 2003 http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Who cares if people posted their own cares. Why can't someone take pride in a car that in all honesty might get lost in the shuffle with the sheer quanity of cars on the HAMB. I must have missed something in the rule book someplace. Hey, I nominate your car wayfarer...I had forgotten about it and you should be proud, so add it to the list.

[Nads]

I hereby nominate myself for the HAMB Ladyslayer of the Year, shit, make that the decade.

I honestly can't vote for any one car, they're all noteworthy accomplishments. However if you put a gun to my head, I'd have to say Cleatus' Sled.

[Scotch]

I looked this post over pretty thoroughly, and I think it's too tough for us to pick just one. I mean, the whole "awards" mentality is kinda anti-HAMB to me. I don't want to single out any one HAMB car over any other. I dig em' all for many different reasons; none more important or significant or personal than any other. It's hard enough for me to look at a rod, then a custom, and choose one over the other. They both make statements, however different, and I don't have a preference. Am I pussing out by not "voting"? Maybe, but since these cars weren't built to win awards, I don't want to judge them. I think the "award" should go to the HAMBer who did the most to further the cause this year. As much as I dig the cars, I think it's the people that make the HAMB.

Think about it. Do we really want to start judging HAMB rides against each other, and say one is better than the others?

Scotch~!

[voneyeball]

lots of nice stuff, but i'm with travis. evelfordcoupe. it may not be done, but it ran under its own power and scared the shit out of everyone.

another pic for your consideration. pic was intentional, btw, kinda like a "joke" you know? humor seems to be lacking around here lately. this is FUNNY. ok?

[Byron Crump]

Hey, what about Kartbreakers "death rod" from hell! I fergot that one http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

BTW, what is going on with that car, didnt the motor die?

[buzzard]

1. EVILFORDCOUPE'S Evil Ford Coupe.
2. Merc50's Tiki Coupe.
3. Crease's Coupe.
4. Hotwheel's Hemi Powered A Coupe.

I think I may be biased towards Texas cars. I see them more.

[BARNETT]

Damn...I forgot Crease just got that running THIS year! He's been driving it so much it just seems like it's been on the road for at least a year and a half! Definitely a cool ride...espescially knowing how much work he did all by himself! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[Byron Crump]

I say a no vote and in the migthy Marvel tradition (trade mark by Stan Lee) everyone on the list gets a "no prize."

(I wonder how many of you know what I am talking about on the no prize thing...closet geeks and all)

[du$ty]

i love sixmonsters roadster...but evilfordcoupe is my vote too.sorry hes a Texan. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif..and i saw that S.O.B in person. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

[roadstar]

If ya pin me down to picking the badest ass badass of badasses it would defanitly be "Evilfordcoupe"

[voneyeball]

i count 7 votes for jason so far. and, i might add, no car more deserving of a monster shirt...

[voneyeball]

8

[briggs&strattonChev]

38Chevy454, is that a 216 chevy in your modified?

[fordnutz]

Taking Von Tingler's idea one step further. He says he is not sure we should vote on the best car so lets vote on whether we should vote on the best car. Hell, lets be real democratic and vote on whether we should vote on whether we should vote to decide on whether we should.........where was I going with this. Excuse me, I think I need to sit and rest my head. By the way, they are all great. It's a tie.

[buzzard]

I vote "yes" that we should vote on whether to vote or not, at which time I will vote "no" to voting.

[38Chevy454]

B&SChevelle, the engine in the modified is a 53 215 Ford, same family as the later 223 which is more common.

BTW, I am replacing that six with a 60 Olds 394 this winter, and will be giving away that engine and trans to a needy HAMB'er soon. It runs and drives (with the POS-O-Matic trans connected to it), but the engine is pretty worn out. It's free, can't beat that.

[hatch]

Let's do this....vote for the favorite car, but only publish which car wins....no mention of how many votes were cast.

[briggs&strattonChev]

hatch, how would we vote then? pm'ing von tingler or what? If you do a poll everybody can see the results

[hatch]

good question....anybody????

[Glen]

Im sad nobody has voted my bicycle yet? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[briggs&strattonChev]

I say we vote, HAMBers should be mature enough not to cast hard feelings if their car doesnt win.

[Nads]

VonTingler this indeed is a conundrum, because unlike our brethren in the outside world we really do appreciate each other's accomplishments. I wish the rest of the world was more HAMBlike.
You know what, in all truthfullness most of the folks on the HAMB are pretty much ego free and they do what they do without the spectre of recognition over their heads.
If'n you do what you do for the love of it, then you're all winners.
That includes blokes who like to scratch their behinds until they smile. That's me in a nutshell.

[hatch]

My ego is MUCH better than your ego...paid a bunch for it.

In my mind my '53 was finished in '03..but as soon as i look in the garage, what i invision in my head is tottaly and completely erased!!!!

Oh well, there is no time limit i guess.
I'll be on the '04 list! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif (i hope)

Rat......

Oh yeah, the '03 list is loaded with great ride's!

[BARNETT]

Howz 'bout a "VonTingler's Pick" award?! Then you still haveta paint a shirt... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[buzzard]

That's kinda what I was trying to say. What's to say you can't paint a shirt and send it to the guy who built the car you like the most. Not that it's a requirement, obviously. I just think that out of the blue ways to show appreciation are neater than official, organized, ways. It's a very generous idea you had to do it in the first place and I'm glad to see more pics of these cars.

Besides, there are too many kick ass cars being built every year on this board to pick just one.

[Tony]

Or, if you have kid's, have them pick the one they like the most.
this way your not behind the eight-ball to "choose" between so many bad ride's, the kid's participate, and a lucky winner gets a kick ass shirt!!!
this way it's just for fun.

not tryin to make more work for ya man...but you are good at them things!!

Rat........

[Fat Hack]

We should all make an award presentation to the one we nominated...so VT ain't stuck giving one "prize" to one "winner"!!

(They're ALL winners!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)

I'm gonna make and present the Official 2003 Fat Hack Rusty Wrench Award to Kulturepimp!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I'll make it up and mail it to ya Thom...you more than earned it, Bro!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[Travis]

break it in two.

Rod & Custom

The smoothest Custom here in my book is Cleatus'.

The best Hot Rod that can dish it out and take no prisoners and look like a life sized hotwheel is EvilFordCoupe.

Nuff said.

Too tough for me to vote one "best' car.... I like 'em all.

I'm picking Roadstar's 40 as my favorite and I'm going to give him his special "winners" prize tonight. Think he'll believe me when I tell him it's in the garage and he has to follow me out there to collect? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I just realized my shit qualifies since I got it on the road this year as a redo. I already voted ..no vote.. so I don't feel guilty, but I would like to include it with the other fine rides as a H.A.M.B. member.

Reading through this post just makes you realize how many KILLER cars were built this year, WOW.
Hot Rods, Customs, Drag cars, all of them Boss!

I'll always remember 03 as the year of the Drag cars. With the BFD, Digger Killer, and Dragon Fly all inspiring others to build a car and go racing who knows what 04 holds. Can't wait to find out.

Thanks for the nominations Buzzard and Barnett, you folks are just too kind.

Im bustin my nominations into categories

Car that I wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley..The Evil Ford Coupe

Car that hits the nostalgia nail on the head and keeps on smackin.....Reggies coupe. I absolutely fell in love with that car in Temple.

Vintage precision and a hell of alot of fun category...Sandman's lil green roadster. That car is an absolute blast and the only thing newer than 1950 or so is the brake drums.

[SandMan]

Thanks Crease, but the truth is, when ever we role someplace they all ask if you wana sell yours.

I was at the Day of the Drags and got to see Evilfordcoupe pull his rig off the trailer and I swear it was angry, pissed, and wanted to kick some ass. The crowed all backed up a few feet! Now that is what a hot rod is supposed to do.

My vote is for Evilfordcoupe, and Crease's 33.
This post makes me want to go build something. Thanks, I love this stuff!

Thanks to everybody that said nice things about my Roadster.
I was going to take it off the list as soon as the voting would start, and since that does not seem to happen, I'll do it now.
Truth is, It has been on the road a couple of months to long to qualify for this list. ( I drove it to the last 2 GG shows in Scotsdale ).
I would have liked a shot at the Von Tingler Original, but not by cheating.
( So I may have to buy one now...)

[HatchSis]

Maybe 2. Love Ya Bro.

Suggestion:
How about just having a list of 'completed' cars/trucks etc for the year?
That way we couls all review the accomplishments of our 'bretheren' from the year?

I think this post(which started out as a good thought)has degenerated to the point that it reminds me of the scene in the movie,"It's a Mad,Mad,Mad,Mad World" where the characters are parked beside the road trying to figure out which way to divide up the money they're going to get.
This is one of those scenarios where the old adage,"be careful what you wish for"seems to scream out.
I think(there I go ;working without equipment again!)we should let this thread die an honorable death and continue to appreciate each others cars the way we have been doing right along.Life is WAY too complicated as it is.JMHO

[Petejoe]

I agree with Safari... How can you really judge all these vehicles when each one is created with a different theme.
I for one like all these vehicles and every one of them for its specific creative approach. It's not fair to judge these as a popularity contest... Now posting pics of this years newly built, as suggested, is a great idea.

Will I may be late to offering up a suggestion but here it is.. It was rebuilt and updated with its maiden voyage this summer.. It is pure Hot Rod and almost all (if not all) was done by the owner.. FlamedAbone's sedan
