Who was Who at the HAMB Drags... aka: Name that Ride

[hotrodladycrusr]

I got to thinking after 4t64rd made a comment on the HAMB Drags video thread about having to go back through old posts to determine who was who at the Drags, that I might be able to help. I thought that if I posted a photo of cars with screen names together that folks could watch the tape and scroll through this post to see who's who.

Here's where the rest of you guys come in. I think I took a photo of almost every HAMB ride there BUT I certainly can't pretend to remember what car goes with who, sooooo, I'll post the photos with names if I know them. If there is a ride with a number instead of a name, OR if I got someone's name wrong, please let me who's it is and I'll edit and fill in the blanks. And, I apologize in advance to those that have dial up cuz this load is going to suck for you.

<font color="green">Denise,

It was good to meet you.

Sorry I wasn’t my usual jovial self.

I blame the heat stroke.

You’re better off really.

Here is some help….

The car you have labeled Kustom52 is Outlaw, unless he has changed his name.

#7 is StrayKatKustoms

#9 is MONKEY

#10 is Mama Rash her HAMB name is VIXXXEN but she hasn’t posted yet.

#11 Yours truly, CURIOUS RASH

#18 HUFFED from Tulsa, not a HAMBer. I think

#24 El Jefe

#25 BigABone, I think.




RASHY

[jerry]

denise, #3 is owned by an old time roddder here in phx named ron olmstead. it was driven around out there by elpolacko.

#8 is milesm's car.


jerry

[Deyomatic]

Here goes:
The one listed as Kerry is really Reggie's car, he is one of the Texas crew, Kerry is # 25. Same color, I think Kerry's is a Pontiac.

3. Ron Olmstead's T Touring, El Polacko brought this from Phoenix in Ron's absence.

4, 5, 13.. Some of Flamed A bone's buddys. (I think)

6. Some Local guy

8. MilesM's wagon

9. Monkey (I think)

10. Curious Rash's "Mama"

11. Curious Rash (Note license plate in other photos)

12. Local car with the 10.2 second runs.

19. Kustom52

21. Krupanut

24 El Jefe, Steve Wertheimer (SP?)

25 Kerry

What do I win?

[BLAKE]

The car you attributed to 'KUSTOM52' belongs to OUTLAW, and the chopper in #2 belongs to EVILFORDCOUPE of 'FlyRite Choppers'.

[CURIOUS RASH]

<font color="green"> #2 is OUTLAW and his Fly Rite TM chopper </font>

[buzzard]

I can help straighten out some of the Kontinentals rides...

The Chevy listed as Kustom52 is Outlaw
The coupe listed as Kerry is Reggies'.
#2 is EvilFordCoupe's bike
#21 is Krupanut's roadster
#24 is El Jefe's Goldenrod

[CURIOUS RASH]

<font color="green">oops!
</font>

[buzzard]

Man, ya'll type fast.

[fatassbuick]

Jesus, what an outstanding effort, Denise. I take pictures and can't remember where the hell I was the next day.

[atch]

ok, i'm bummed. all i see are boxes with red x's in them. too bad for me...

[HotRodDrummer]

Atch, right click on the boxes and left click on show picture. you may have to do them one at a time http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I'm having to do this as well

[av8]

Thanks for posting the great pics, Denise! I wish I could have been there and this is certainly the next best thing.

[Rocky]

The two suspicious characters in photo #3 are Smokey on the left and 46 4rd on the right. Both are from Iowa.......and neither brought his hot rod!

[andysdeuce]

Denise, thanks for the pics...a lot of work. The Chevy you have listed for Kustom52 is correct. We hung around together all weekend so I know his chevy. Where you at Brian..straighten this out. I believe that Chevy p/u next to my car is WZjunk's brothers p/u again. Could be wrong...I've slept since then!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[flt-blk]

Great effort Denise.
Have you started a Database yet, B'Ville, HAMB Drags, etc.

Maybe you coule publish a flip chart with cars and names.

TZ

[hotrodladycrusr]

I'm glad you guys appreciate the effort. I might not be able to help too much with tech posts but I try to find other was to earn my keep around here. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks for helping out with the labling, you guys were fast. Now who does the rest of these rides belong too???

Rocky, ok those are the guys in the photo but who does the car belong too?

I was thinking about doing the same type of thread with the people shots that I took at the Drags. What do you think? Maybe do that next week.

Andysdeuce, I had Kustom52's car listed wrong at first. You are seeing the edited version now.

Flt-Blk, I'm going to go thru my Star Photo album that these photos are in and lable all of the photos with the cars owners. Folks can put my Star album in their favorites and reference it whenever they want.

I did bring out the 27 tub, Ron Olmstead is my spare dad. He is battling bladder cancer for the third time in a few years and didn't feel he was up to the trip with us.

He's doing well right now and is very optimistic about the outcome in a few days.

This car was featured in Street Rodder a few years ago without the hood. Been driven quite a bit, even to Viva Las Vegas by Ron and Go-Kat-Go earlier this year. Very fun to drive and that Buick goes just as good as it looks. I promised Ron I would not drag race it, so I didn't. He wants to do that honor next year.

[Fraz]

5 is blakmerk from St. Joe, I believe.

Funny part is that I see my dad's van and my bro-in-law's truck in the background in 2 different photos, but me no see me Byooik!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Fraz]

No, wait, I think I see the 'Ik hiding behind a couple guys and a pole in the background of Tucks car. I think.

[hotrodladycrusr]

Fill me in on what Byooik looks like and I'll look through some more photos. I might have it running down the track.

Also, there's about 6 or 7 hours of edit time left. After that I won't be able to change the numbers to names. Come on guys, who do these cars belong to???

[beatnik]

I think this is the only shot we had of the Buick, it was in the background of another photo.

[Monkey]

Hey Denise,

Great shots! I can't believe I didn't take more pictures. I was runnin around too much talking and humping Roothawg's leg!!!! Ha ha ha! I think Mama Root has that one on film!

Anyway you got me squared away. #9 is the ride. Thanks for the great pics and all the time and effort!

look forward to seeing ya soon!

~Monkey~

[Fraz]

Thar she blows! Literally. Blowin coolant on the ground, damn bad radiator..........

Thanks. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[flamedabone]

I can only add two things:

1) The 48 Chevvie in #4 and 13 belongs to that skinny tattooed fag in pic 13. He is Pontiacguy from St Joe, Mo.

2) I had such a good damn time I'm gonna need plastic surgery to remove my goddamn smile.

-Abone.

[slingshot]

Number 28 was/is Slingshot

[Deyomatic]

I don't even remember seeing #20.

[choprods]

a lot of the pics didnt sho up??her are some I took that are different than shown......

[choprods]

more

[choprods]

my buddy Tod Allen Butler Mo-25 Dodge rpu

[choprods]

cool mini-chop -all the rest of my pics were on a [disposable camera]

[KCsledz]

I didn't think that anyone caught me in a photo but choprods did! Thats me in the conductor hat and red shirt.

KCsledz

[Scallop53]

In the pic labeled abcdefg, (C)I think, is a '60 starliner owned by newby SCARLINER,Choprods brother Reggie.

[WZ JUNK]

I have a few names to add to the list. Some of the attendees were local people who had either heard about the HAMB Drags on the MO-KAN message board or ones that I had mentioned it to.

1 Dan Baum, 6 Mike Schartz, 12 Tony Simone, 15 Jerry Branson, 16 Tony Simone's trailer puller for his red coupe race car, Huffed is Loyd Huffman, 22 Larry Ruth, 23 Gary Maddox "Mad Dog", 26 Mike Kaufman, 27 Dan Griffin, 28 John Spraldin AKA the former "SPC Drag" Most of this group are locals and some of them are signed on the HAMB but most are lurkers. Looking at the list I can see that they are friends of mine, which I do not know is a good thing for them.
