A patriotic Aussie....

 

God Bless America - The Red-White & Blue!

 

How about a famous Willys hitching a ride on a big red white and blue boat with a patriotic name?

 

without the flag we would not be doing what we love.
PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN
Great thread Kevin

 

HERE are a few from around the H.A.M.B.

 

A couple more.

 

I was hunting that magazine cover when I was doing my post. There is also a good Car Craft magazine that has a 57 on it that I believe is stars and stripes decorated.

 

How many of us bought it about 5 years ago when it was re-issued because they missed it the first time?

 

here are some more pics before and after





yikes

 

A 1970s' barris kustom " hard hat hauler". Notice the drive belt on the three blowers never made in down to the crankshaft. Definitely a patriotic workingmans t bucket.

 

Thanks for the pics of the "PIE" Kev.

Was the AMCO toppolina stars n stripes themed?

 

sorry to be off topic abit but would anyone have and pics or info of the yellow/gold 57 fairlane in the pic enloe posted of john diannas 56

 

I was thinking about this and realized no one posted any pics of "The Worlds Fastest Hippie" Mike Mitchell...














I copied these off of the internet.

 

Here's a local Red White and Blue Willys from Buffalo NY.

 

FOUND ANOTHER IN MY SURFING TODAY

I don't know I saw it on a Corvette thread on here and lifted it.

Somebody needs to do a version of this for the street... maybe two seperate little roll cages??? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm........

This isn't an antique vehicle yet, but it is slap worn out if that counts. My hood ornament is a 1948 Buick, so that makes this truck traditional, or some kind of bull like that. I painted this one with a different kind of stars and stripes. The paint fell off of this 97 Dodge years ago. So I recently spent about $100 on this patriotic paint job.

 

I've got the magazine with that Chev coupe as in th etop photos - and have plans to do a similar type of paint-scheme on my '37 Ford coupe 'gasser'. (when it's finished...)

 

What have I missed?

Why does 'slammed' post so many 'blank' posts???
