Hot Rods I missed out on this 1934 Ford in New Jersey.. did a HAMBER get it?

I emailed the guy on Tuesday and set up an appointmet for today to see it...call him and he tells me he sold it yesterday...WTF!! FML!

 

1st 1 with the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ will own it.
Ya snooze ya lose

 

I had the cash....

 

Well hope a HAMBER got it...hate to see a 34 rat rodded!

 

You didnt put it in his hand first

 

He wanted 10Gs....knew it wouldnt last....Oh well...

 

Looks like a deal for 10k....

 

Yea...was gonna put my Radir slicks on it...East Coast 60's style!!

 

its hard to argue with cash in hand...

 

Is that the one that Mel built a few years ago owned by a guy at the shore ?

 

just not cricket old boy!! Had that done a few times and also had folk offering more money for stuff I was selling but if i have given someone first refusal then thats the way it stays until that person says yes or no

 

It was in Pt. Pleasant.....didnt get a chance to see it...did Mel build it? Looks like his artwork on tha rad....

 

Listen, I get it...Cash in hand!! Im just courious to see if someone on here got it....Plus, when I sell stuff I usually hold it for the first person who calls but I understand its tough now and people need $$$$....Still wish I got it!!! Buahahahaha!

 

10 grand was a steal! The body alone is worth more than half the 10k.
If you REALLY want it, ask the owner who bought it and offer the guy a quick 12k which is still a deal. At 10k, he may have bought it to flip.

 

Id be leary of a scam, maybe? Ive seen that car for sale on c.l. about four times, same pics and details. Im kinda amazed it never sold a year or so ago. maybe the guys fishing for comments

 

I'm not the guy selling it...first time I ever saw it on Craigslist was this week.. and hey it could be a scam...don't know. I'm not fishing for anything besides good deals!

 

Looks like ya already have one, why do you need 2? common man.

 

Six-pack, I meant the seller, not you buddy, sorry for the confusion.
Some guys like getting a buyer on the hook just to say they have one!

 

Well, at least I didn't burn a tank of gas to go look at it then...

 

Six pack,

I agree with you, people suck...a handshake means nothing these days and a mans word should stand for something..

Pete-

 

I want a model 40 so bad I could poop.

 

Hey Slick, sorry...didn't get it hahahaha...and slam you are right I have a 34 and will never part with it but hey, 2 is better than 1!! Hahaha...it was more the deal...always hunting!! Lol

 

Six pack, I wouldn't sweat it if it was the one in Point Pleasant, it was rough. Ask Mel about it.

 

Ok Bubba67...thanks for the info...

 

Anyone know if mel from Neptune is on the hamb the man builds some sweet early hot rods

 

Yes, Mel is here. AKA Dirtyest Devil

 

Wow, this is funny! I just found this thread.

I was trying to show a friend a sick boat and searched some words and this thread came up. I saw the title and thought fuck, a 34 in jersey... I gotta know it.

Then saw Pete post 1st and thought man, who fucked who? Then I see my buddy six pack is the the guy feeling short changed. Wow nuts!!!

I did partially build this car, and I did buy it back. See... A guy showed up wanting a rat rod. Gay! I said hey I can build you something better. But he had hi ideas and I had mine. Work is work sometimes. So I took an old roundy round car I bought off a guy in Fl and built this car into a solid roller. I re channeled it, fixed the frame, patched up the body, rockers, floors, etc. guy had a engine and I added his trans and made a member. Then he too it as he ran out of for. He finished it and made it lame. Added rat rod final treatments. Raked a great grill and added the 34. Not me! Also did a bunch of goofy shit. He maybe rode it once. Then wanted to sell it. He called an offered it to me for much cheaper then he had in it, but I still didn't need it. Then one day he called and said 10k. I called my dad and said buy this! Then I fixed it best I could. Dad still owns it. I'm not done, but have no time. This car could be much better with a few extra things. I'd like to see a sea weed flame job on it and some new non gay seats. It is now black. Grill fixed, crap.... A ton fixed since he finished it not me. Anyway, sorry anyone, or six pack... I had no idea of any of this. It may be for sale soon. Not to expensive either.

 

Here it is black. My dad like fat tires, so it has 15's on back. I personally like 16's or it would look cool with slicks. I also had hoped we might chop it and put a hood on it. But dad is having to much fun to let it stand still. I'd love to do so wired Watson flames on it, much like a model that I remember.

 

Now that is cool, show us more pics!

 

Damn Mel, that looks great!
