    Nothing Hamb friendly right now, though I owned many long before there was a Hamb. Maybe in '13. I'm hopeful something will surface within my budget, which has been damn tight the last few yrs. Final year of college for the youngest, then we'll see. My slightly OT ride will keep me busy in the meantime. But I'm not growin' a damn mullet to matter what you guys say, Donahue didn't. :rolleyes:

    before I can commit to this, I'll have to ask my wife if I can have 'em back...:eek:
     
  7. After I sold my Hudson, all I have that's HAMB-friendly is my teardrop camper trailer project. Always on the lookout for something, though. I've a couple of cool non-HAMB vehicles I'd love to do some trading with, though!!!
     
  8. Had to sell my last 3 in 2011. When the eye doc said I need surgery to prevent going blind, the cars went. Gotsa memories.

    According to norman vincent peale you have to get a picture and make a list of everything you want in an old car. Next you envision the feeling of what it would be like owning and driving your old car . I did this and I found my 60, a 60 flattop I sold, and now a turnpike cruiser. I did this to keep me motivated in school. I even convinced the wife about the need. This year I will slam the dumb debt, then pick up my Turnpike... His books are amazing!

    I guess I do fit in the new social carless club. However I do have some goodies to go in 1 when I eventually get one.

    I've got a yard full that are all projects at the moment and not having a running hot rod or custom that I can actually drive sucks but that condition may lessen by summer.

    Guilty. Taking a break from cars and shows for a few years, my choice. Pinstriping and custom paint f/x has become more of a focus whilst i saving for a new car and finding a new place to live. Looking forward to cruising again but happy to have time to follow my other interest.
     
  22. I am "car less". I was gonna get some sort of a HAMB-friendly car or build one this year but my daily driver is a Monte Carlo SS getting 8 mpg and alot of attention from the police and they seem to feel that they deserve MY money and MY license more than I do. :/

    ROFLMAO! I have already told my co-workers that if I suddenly stop showing up for work without any explanation, call the police, and have them dig up any 6' long areas of freshly turned earth in my back yard...

    I consider myself carless when I don't have something old to drive everyday, so, right now I'm carless. I sold my '56 F100 daily driver in Nov 2011 and have kicked myself in the ass everyday since. I am heartbroken. Out of all the HAMB friendly daily drivers I've had in the past, it was by far the coolest, most reliable, and funnest to work on and drive. My girl still has her '53 Chevy 2dr mild custom in the garage, but it's still in the project stage and I don't consider it mine. I have a bunch of tubing and vintage parts to build my front engine dragster, but it's not a car, or will it ever be a driver.

    Although I'm actively looking for something to fill the void in my soul in the form of 40's-60's cars & trucks, I miss my F100 so much that I've decided that I'll have to build another, albeit a bit different beneath the sheetmetal, to curb my desire to be in my old favorite.

    As for now, I have a 20 year old 4x4 Suburban and hate it with every ounce of my being. I don't like to drive it, work on it, look at it, talk about it, or even think about it.

    I don't consider myself "Car Less" but I sure would like to get this project on the road.
