Always amazed at the power of the H.A.M.B. And then the post about cars that inspired you.... Well I will throw this out... First Hot Rod I was ever around, it was unique then and would imagine it is still the same today if around? What I remember from the Late 60's / Early 70's Tall T Big Hemi right out in the open. Stainless Steel flat dash. Single Row of guages and a single row of toggle switches. Last time I saw it 1985 had the dash covered in dash plaques. Any one seen it lately?
I have not seen it lately but I remember it well, George the guy who owned it back then died of throat cancer in about 85. That thing looked so bad but the Hemi was a real dog. He would drive that thing everywhere he hung out with a group club Unassociated I still see a few of the old members from time to time, so I will ask about the car. On a side note just trying to figure out if I know you, If I remember right you were a friend or coworker of Carlos Polido before he died right.
Once again the power of the HAMB. It was George who owned it. Big Tall guy, owned or worked at a tire shop in Oildale. And Yep I know Carlos... didn't know he died..
