We've all been watching Flop's threads on how a master metalworker chops a 32 three window coupe, this thread will show how an amateur learns how to chop a top for the first time. I've always liked the looks of a chopped 32 Ford coupe. Thanks to people like Flop and others on the HAMB and the...

My wife made a comment the other day that by the time I get my 36 done, I won't be needing to work out of my shop. She was talking about painting the floors in the shop and basically using it for a storage facility for all my cars.

That kinda made me pause for a minute. I had never intended...

Finally stripped the interior of my '55 Caddy today and the floors are about as bad as I expected.

My first instinct was to use a complete floor pan but quickly have discovered that repops aren't made like ones for a '57 Chevy for example. After assessing how bad everything is, which it is, I'm...

The Mysterion has received much coverage here on the HAMB over the years. Even Ryan wrote a piece on its "mysterious" aspect years ago (of which I only recently became aware). Jeff Jones has built a most accurate clone of the car, which will be sold at the RM Sothby's auction tomorrow at the...

Taking a cue from Moriarity's ongoing & very popular salute to the Deuces younger brother it seemed only natural to do the same thing with the quintessential Hot Rod, The 1932 Ford.

With that said, post 1932 Ford pictures and we will have our own event right here. HRP

This is my sedan the day...

Yes I know we should have had a bale of hay on the back , but it is summer time down under. I think our cows were more interested in eating grass than checking out a banger powered jalopy. But just thought we would share the pictures.

When I was a kid, we didn't have a ton of money, so I would scrounge garage sales and bargain bins for model car stuff. I would spend hours mixing and matching parts from leftover kits etc. Trading parts that were obviously not the right scale, just because it...

Every once in a while I think about how the really smart guys come up with their ideas. Most recent one was while working with fiberglass for my Mysterion reproduction. Some guy thought, "My son just threw a baseball through our bedroom window, destroying the extremely brittle and fragile...

What is your car's signature?

Some of you guys might even know the car or have at least seen it if you get StreetScene. Anyway here is my new to me 1935 Ford Sedan Flatback. My plans for it mainly include driving it and having fun in it


Photo from last Monday when I got it....

Can i just call a scrap yard to haul it away and get paid?
Theres no title, the seller wants to get paid and have...

I'm new to the H.A.M.B. but have read many posts here and hoping for help! I have a '40 dodge coupe that I "finished" several years ago. I have never been able to drive it far due to overheating. I put in a 392 hemi, which is a stock rebuild with new stock water pump, and have a 64 ford 4 core...

There was a guy had a line of products he was promoting on Jay's program. Might even have been nano tech chemicals. When he was through with his flagship products, he moved on to this rust remover product. I think the guy was wearing a black polo shirt - easy to spot in youtube videos maybe....

Spent some time in Portland OR a few weeks ago visiting my sister and family; rolling along the freeway I saw this big sign that read "World of Speed". I was a little limited on time but they were only too happy to drop me off there for a couple hours the next day.
Yep, brought my camera........

Well here we go again. I sell my other coupe and I wonder around here after work and keep telling my self I’ll never do it again. A month later I’ve got my head stuck in the classifieds looking for that deal. Well here we go again. This one has had a few different people start and stop on it...

We had a thread going awhile back were a few guys had built woodies themselves with whatever cowl and fenders they had laying around.

Unfortunately the Photobucket BS has killed most of our good pic threads so let’s start a new one.

Anyone done anything like this or have any suggestions how...

Now before anyone gives me crap, I know this has been a topic that has already been blasted all over the internet. But, from the many hours I have spent scouring the web I still havent came across all the information I am after.

In a street/strip application, lets say that's 80% street and...
