I LOVE polara's, would really like to build a super stocker outta one one of these days. Hell that 50 looks pretty nice, just lower the front a bit and drive that bitch(great choice in wheels to).

i like the 50, but like greasy said, lower it. i like em real low, but then again most people that know me think i am wierd. even looks good without the whole grill there, but i would probally put a bumper on it, maybe set the bumper a little lower. keep us posted with progress. oh yeah, and welcome.

 

I dig Polaras...I think it would make a cool 60's style custom.

 

....sweet rides.....WELCOME!

 

I love Polara's myself , did a 66 Polara 500 w buckets ,console and 440 /auto a few years back and got my license in my dads 66 Polara more door about 69,That 383 would boil the hides BIG time lol , stopped driving dads after he a found a SHEET of rubber in the wheelwells from after drk street racing,He was NOI happy , welcome

ELrust-o-rod.....we better get on it...they are gonna make us move to Oklahoma(tm) if we dont get shoeboxes!!!

 

What's up with your username, SWAZZIE?

That sounds like a real dick name to me.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Looks like you got a good handle on the car thing. A boat to drive and a shoebox to play with.
At least that's the way its always worked in my house.
Welcome,
The PknBner

 

WELCOME!

I'd like to know what that means also.

 

id like to know what the hell krupanut means.

 

you got it dusty,

Let see, it all started when I was playing the skins in a bunch of swing bands,(still do) and people would call me Krupa as in Gene Krupa (one of my fav drummers).

I started using krupanut, as in nuts about Gene Krupa, as a login name at work, on drum message boards and such.

So when I singed up on the HAMB I used the same old username I use everywhere.
The End.

 

and this whole time i thought you really like the badguys in Super Mario Brothers.
