Btt...

 

Thanx Mark (and Ryan) for doing the "HAMB Round-up" again...I was fortunate to win with my Cadillac in 2012 and I certainly did like the T-shirt designed by Ger..I gave one away to ALL my pals and they still wear them these days...!!! IF you'd care to see the WHOLE build on the Caddy, go here:

Anyway, this is a great thing Mark is doing in honor of his son, and something all of us should be aware of.

Of course, since I'm a "kustom"guy, I'd certainly be remiss if I didn't nominate Cody Walls and his '59 Chevy wagon...that one is definitely K-U-S-T-O-M...!!!

Thanks Carl I always look forward to you posting for the Roundup

 

I was honored to win the Shelbys Hot Rod Roundup pick at the Shades of the Past this September. Mark spent some time with my wife and I and we were so impressed with his goals and and how he is going about remembering his son Shelby. Thanks again Mark and hope to cross paths again.

Here is my 1 of a kind 33 FORD View attachment 2745673

 

We have some great entries so far Thanks EarlyFordV8 and Dave Mc for supporting us.Ger Peters aka DutchCourageGraphics designs our shirts for this HAMB pick and so far all would make killer shirts.Keep them coming guys & gals.Check us out at:

John McCue Thanks for the kind words,I enjoyed talking with you and your wife,your Sedan was a great choice at Shades of the Past.I am looking forward to doing your story.

 

Mark,I would like to enter my wagon for consideration.

 

Thanks Brenda your the best I hope you and the girls and Danny are doing Well,missed seeing you guys at Shades this year,so many folks

 

There is already some fine machines on here! As usual I will stripe a panel for the winner. I enjoy doing this every year, thanks again RAZIN CAIN for letting me be apart of your cause.

 

Just getting started!

There's more to come.

 

Thanks Paul for doing another panel this year,you doing this is a large part of the goodies the pick will receive.

 

I think Ladyhrp's wagon would be a great choice. It appears to have a "MAN PEDAL" [stick shift] and it has the distributor in the front of the engine as well. The way God intended it to be! errrrrr..Lady pedal!

 

Tommy you need to enter the Fairlane.

 

help me out a little here guys without giving me too much shit what is this thing? It's before my time.All I know for sure is that I love it and it has a tri power Y block and a stick for power very cool instead of the damn 350/350 chebbies I'm so used to seeing around here. no imagination left in N/W IN just as soon as we can get caught up a little more on our recent move from laporte to michigan city and I can sell off some more race stuff I'll get started on a proper street rod project one powered by a 430 or 462 lincoln or a 394 olds or a nail head buick since it looks as though my big wheelstanding drag racing days are now behind me now according to the Indiana quacks and now even the Chicago TOP quacks who initially gave me a glimmer of hope for recovery have now changed their mind as well and gone 180 on me

 

It's a chopped 33/34 Ford Sedan. HRP

 

thank you so tired of seeing 350/350 chrbbies with a Edelbrock performer carb and intake and chhrome sprint car style headers around here masquerading as a street rod. even if they are buying the stuff from us.

 

Well here is one of those 350/350 built for my son two years before his untimely end. It was built by a loving father, a car club, the Townsmen out of Sacto Calif who's help was instrumental in getting her done and cannot be appreciated any more by anyone on this planet I have not posted these before Mark but will include them this year. He owned this car since he was 16 and never had the chance to finish it so dad took care of it for him, now grandson will drive it........
All work done in our garage and painted in Jim Major's Barn...................

Humm parts in the bedroom..........




And of course the final pic...........May you rest in peace my son..........

 

Nice Chevy for sure. May God bless you and your family!

 

Sweet 56 Chevy Carl,I'm glad you posted it.
Come on HAMB members post up,the Roundup is for those who have lost a loved one to Suicide and the ones who left us to soon!

 

My kid helped me with every car I have built. He died from playing the choking game a year ago
Last week. This is the truck
We put
Together for him
To
Drive to
School. He was only 16 and never even got to drive it. Now when I hear that country song " I drive your truck" I just cry like a little girl. I don't expect his truck
To
Win anything, I
Just thought I would share his tragedy. he helped me put the bike
Together as well. So young, not fair.
