It’s the first day of 1954 and you just woke up after one hell of a New Years party. Your still half wearing your wrinkled tux, the smell of cigarettes and bourbon ooze through your skin, and your head hurts like hell. Who’s that broad in bed next to ya? You don’t normally go for blondes. It must be a new year. Shit. A new year? That must mean only one thing - The new 1954 H.A.M.B. Calendar is here! This year, our pal Chad decided to go above and beyond. This isn’t so much a calendar as it is an art piece. The design is marvelous, the photography is gorgeous, and the whole package is printed on very heavy, very high quality paper. In fact, this calendar is four times thicker than any calendar we have ever done! I’m pretty damned confident when I say this is the best Hot Rod/Custom calendar you could possibly buy. It’s that damn good. Stop reading my ramblings, head over to the store, and buy yourself some calendars. Due the extra expense of the paper we used this year (remember, this thing is as thick as your latest issue of The Rodder’s Journal), we didn’t order nearly as many pieces as we usually do. As such, I expect these to sell out pretty quickly. Act now homie – you’ll be glad ya did! Special Thanks: Obviously, Django is my hero. He designs these calendars every year and his talent makes this all happen. Jarzenhotrods also stepped to the plate this year and handle the printing. I couldn’t be more thankful. These guys put their heart and souls behind this deal… Slap ‘em on the back if you get a chance. Finally, thanks to all you fellas that contributed photos yet again this year. They are gorgeous! Are you still reading this? Why? Go get your damn calendar! <BR><BR>To read the rest of this blog entry from The Jalopy Journal, click here.
Just to give you guys an idea, below is an illustration of how thick this year's calendar is. On top is a recent issue of TRJ, on the bottom is a calendar. The TRJ is 160 pages and the calendar is 16. Essentially, each month is suitable for framing... VERY heavy card stock.
I'm afraid to hang that on the wall. It'll rip the nail right out of my cheap ass walls! I'll have to reinforce it, or use a wall anchor! Not to mention the mailman will have to start working out NOW if he's gonna fold that thing into thirds and shove it in the box like usual.
THANK YOU!!!! Been waiting for this day for a while! Now to wait for the mail to deliver. What a way to start the new year. Thanks again to all involved in the production of this years calender. jerry

You wrote some of your usual clever prose to lead us in. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Hope everyone has a GREAT New year! It's also the beginning of a New decade! Lets make it memorable! Have An AWESOME Day!!! See Ya' Later!!!
