    It’s got to be bad when a boy has to sell his toys. I wish him the best!

    I'm really sorry to see he's having to sell his cars and even his house.
     
  6. What’s the story on that?

    Its super cool. It went to East TN. Josh Dillon aka sleeper dude on YouTube bought it. It should have a good home, he is a Fairmont fanatic.

    I have no idea, just guessing it may be related to medical expenses.

    I wish Steve all the best. It sounds like he’s downsizing in order to concentrate on getting back to 100%. He looks and sounds good on this video - like he's recuperating well. And he still has all that encyclopedic knowledge! I’m looking forward to seeing him at his old haunts (Motor Trend TV, Barrett-Jackson, etc.) soon!

  14. I see stories on here about people falling on hard times or suffering a health setback and always wonder if The HAMB could set up some kind of crowd-funding type of thing. With the numbers this site has even if a lot of people just kicked in a dollar or five it might make a real difference to someone. I spend money on a lot stupider stuff almost daily and would be happy to kick in.

    I really like the 1963 Dodge he has for sale ..... I have always wanted a 1961 Valiant .... so ugly they are cool. I absolutely would love to own any early 60's Mopar. ..... That dodge of his came from Snyder TX.
    I live in a small town 20 miles away, I go to Snyder 1 or 2 times a month for grocery shopping.

    Sadly he has way too much $$ in it. He overpaid at $5K, then $1700 for shipping, another $5k in misc parts ..... He has $11K tied up in a non running 4 door 63 dodge that needs a complete new floor pan installed that means body off frame to slide it in.

    I love the guy, feel sad he is in so deep on it .... He admits he will not get back what he paid .....
