I just updated the Chrysler thread. It’s coming along. We try to do 2 hours a week. The parts car was a huge help. Thanks for asking!
As much as I would like to keep things more updated on the H.A.M.B. I can’t stand the photos portion. Whether it’s the pain in the ass way you...

Here’s another good shot of what I started with. [ATTACH]
Started the driver side dog leg and it killed me to do it but I went out and lopped off a big piece of the parts car. I hate to cut up any car but...

In some unworldly turn of events the planets have aligned and I have procured a parts car for the car that wasn’t even worthy of being a parts...
Got a chance to wrap up the body lines on the wheel well. Just have to weld/Tig braze it in. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Really don’t know what it’s supposed to look like but who cares?? Haha. Can only see so much zooming in with google images. Just kind of blending...

Hey guys, been a long time. Almost 4 years. Went by in the blink of an eye. Didn’t want to reawaken this post until I was seriously going to...
Yeah. Not H.A.M.B. friendly so I didn’t want to mention it. Not sure how to feel about it but I don’t have anything against modern drivetrains....
