    A good friend and fellow HAMB member Twenty Gallons put out the word he was looking for an emblem to complete his latest Kustom ride. I figured I'd get up early and take a nice little 1 1/2 drive up through Northern Cali. So I grabbed my Def Tone Cd's and hit the road.

    The drive was great. No Wife, No Kids,:D just me and the road. The weather was beautiful and I often forget how nice the farm lands of Cali can be. Anyways to make a long story short I hit the spot to find what I needed and thought I'd take some pictures for my HAMB brothers who may be looking for something new to cut up. No shortage of projects here. I damn near came home with a 55 Buick Special but the wife would have killed me.

    It's no big secret. Big M Auto dismantlers right off Hwy 5 in the city of Willimas 530-473-2225. Tell em James from the HAMB sent you. He may look at you crazy but if everyone tells him that I may get a discount on the Buick I was looking at. :D

    I can't recall if I did or not. I was just taking pictures like a mad man. This is 1 of 2 of they're yards. I'll be back up that way in a few weeks and I'll take another look.

    That 59 El Co was super sweet! Solid floors and all. I really wanted to take an interior shot but me and spiders don't get along. After seeing that chopped one at Santa Maria this year I got a taste for one.When you coming through Vallejo?
