I got a number of emails asking for images of the actual 1955 H.A.M.B. calendar (introduced yesterday) and figured I would oblige. In fact, I went one step further - not only did I take some still shots, but I also stuck my lovely wife in front of th... <BR><BR>To read the rest of this blog entry from The Jalopy Journal, click here.
Cool!! And what makes this even Cooler is that you shot this using vintage equipment, You gotta respect that. and it's good to see that you have already changed the oil on the new engine. Did you lube the chassis too? - 'Oil and a Lube Job, -6 bits' (as Dad used to say).... .
Marcie, is a cute little movie star, and the calendar is cool as well. I can see mine in my briefcase being my daily guide, love the innovative approach with the spiral binding etc. And I can hang my vintage guitar pix calendar I got for xmas over the desk, perfect. ~sololobo~

Ha....98, just ordered mine. Looks Good Ryan, thanks for the reminder...that's why I need a calendar!!
I like the new format, I ordered mine yesterday. Kongrats to Jimmy (aka gonmad) for having one of his pictures selected for the calander. He took the December picture with Johnny Hammond's '58 Chevy. Very Kool!! Happy Trails, Mick
Looks awesome. The tech sheets and those blank pages "for girls phone numbers" did it for me. Gotta order me one
How many left now Ryan? Apparently I got mine cuz it took my money! Hey, wait a second! I hope the calendar Marci showed was just a prototype cuz she skipped a few months!
It's an old recording of G. Love. I think the album was titled, "G. Love Gone Country" or something like that. I don't think it was ever released.
If this is a successful enterprise, then perhaps next year's calendar could follow the same format with tech sheets for, say, Nailheads, Y-blocks and some of the early 4-bangers, eh? Or Oldsmobile Rocket engines. Or the early Caddy OHV engines. Or the W-block Chevies. Or ... Hmmm ... I can easily see several years worth of tech pages on engines alone. And you could toss in some tech on transmissions, axles, wheels, brakes, ... Man, I can easily see this being the beginning of a seriously collectible series. If these sell out quickly, and the demand is there, would there be a second printing?
props to all involved, looks awesome, and great to see it evolve, with neat ideas that 'work'. note: they already are a collectable....just like all the previous calenders.. Cheers, and again thanks, Drewfus
