Threads like this is all about what the HAMB stands for and keeps me coming back for more. Preservation and History. Preserving the past and respecting the history and honoring the individuals who made it happen. A true time capsule.
Nice find. I will say the early placement of headlights always make me scratch my head. I guess different time. Enjoy
Holy shit. I’d under line that if I knew how to lol. fuck that’s cool. @JRussell dig that! saw @cactus1 radar already went off lol
I was able to keep my the 1960 built model A Panel truck. Its been in a few Hot Rod , Surfing Books and magazine's. My Avatra runs great.
C'mon that's not real, where's the rust? Ok just kiddin. Feeling the 'vibe' just looking at the pics, which BTW who else wants even more? Detail. Chassis. Close ups. More! More! More!
I don't get your criticism. They're legit '60s mods---and done well, from what I can see. I'm just glad you didn't buy this survivor.
....Those may have been required by law when the car was built and they look well done as you mentioned. They should stay as they are a big part of the car's history. There was a time in many states that fenders and covered engines, read that hoods, were required.
I too am less than enthused by the rear fenders but I get it. A little technical share here, that mildew on the seats will survive a cleaning with good ol Clorox or any mildew and stain remover with no ill effects. Once done the smell may linger but fear not. Give a liberal wipe down with wax n grease remover after and then spray it all with Lysol. Gone. Avoid most dressings like Armor all or thelike. It'll feed any remaining spores and start over, but Meguire's has a rubber and plastic dressing that works well without the "DUBS" wet tire look. Also, while not for vinyl as designed Lexol does a fine job restoring the original look to that era-orgasmic tuck n roll. Good luck, AND LET'S SEE MORE!
