Great work everyone!! Man what a smokin little classic hot rod!! I was lucky enough to have my first hot rod also at 13, my 33 chevy 2-dr sedan that my Dad put together with me. Feel the love!!-Sololobo
Hot damn!! Fantastic work, everyone! Dry eyes...what's that?? The smile on Andy's face says it all. You've been through a lot, Andy, but now you can lay claim to being the coolest kid on the Rock.
Andy you are a cool young man!!.....and too those that are a part of this historic build congradulations. This is a great time for the HAMB.
Don't know if it fits your def. of 'major' but we're on the ball here at home.: http://www.thetelegram.com/index.cfm?sid=160664&sc=79 Rob Antle did a helluva job. Don't forget to check out the slideshow http://www.thetelegram.com/index.cfm?main=gallery&cid=1661 Ken Simmons Telegram Features editor
Rob Antle was a pleasure to have around! I kinda figured it would be a pain in the...neck to have a reporter in the way but you didn't even know he was there! When he did have to ask some questions and stuff he was easy to talk to and kept it quick and low profile so that others could continue to work. Professional, friendly and a good LISTENER. He nailed the story I think! Give him a raise!
You guys have a place in heaven! All the hours invested for a great young man, you should be proud. The HAMBers that donated parts and cash thank you for making this happen. Only part I don't like, missing the progress and seeing Andys smiling face.
That's cool to the freakin' bone friend. Once in a blue moon someone does it right, and no I'm not talking about the car. Anyone can put a car together.
But seriousely! THIS NEEDS TO BE ON SPEED CHANNEL OR SPEEDVISION! somebody out there has to have a connection somewhere! The "eh" looks fantastic! All the peaple who helped, you guys rock! Y'all are millionaires by karma point-bank standards! Andy,drive the wheels of it! Bring it back to Harborview to show the other sick kids there is love and hope. Besides,I think the pacific northwest HAMBers would love to see you again.{I missed the HAMBANDY cruise the first time around.}
Don't really think it could be said any better... Andy, You have some great people on your side...a beautiful car...and a father who wants only the best for his son...When I first got on the HAMB I was looking for oldsmobile parts....not what I have found in the past year being on here...It is amazing the selflesness of the people on this board, this is an amazing place...but more important are the actions toward Andy from the people here. You got a once in a life time deal there kid, good luck with it....take care of her...and take care of your self...I'm sure there will be many more updates and smiles to come... Keep the dirty side down! Bobby P.S. If it was mine....I'd convince somebody to do a burn out in it!!!!!
Still getting goose bumps. I want to say that it was a pleasure working on this idea that transformed into a major reality. People like all of you builders, well-wishers, even support onlookers and especially all of the HAMB family has shown that nothing is impossible...........
Check out these pictures i finally got posted............Andy ENJOY!!!!!!!! http://s518.photobucket.com/albums/u347/Ton2660/Hamb Andy Day/
That is a way kool ride for a way kool guy. Congrats on the build, Andy! Now go drive it like you stole it! Seriously tho, have fun & be safe!!
awesome. don't know what to say that hasn't been said already... just drive the wheels off it and have a blast. For everyone involved in making this happen... stand proud like the heroes you are...you have done an amazing thing for an amazing kid.
Damn, now I like Andy's sedan better than mine I want one like that. Congradulations bud, you've got one of the coolest rides on the HAMB. To everyone that helped you are all wonderfull people. Moving and inspirational doesn't even begin to describe this build.
