    Well about 4 years ago I sold my 59 Ford Custom 300. Sunday night I was surfing craigslist and saw it for sale. I always regretted getting rid of this car. Well I now own it again. Funny thing it still has all the spare parts I included with it when i sold it.

  10. That's cool. I haven't played with an old Ford 6 in decades. Nice thing about the HAMB is that things that we have forgotten someone else remembers.
     
  11. Hay Kid, If one of your buddies ever says, "wish I had one of those" tell him you know of a nice Bone Stock one for sale. It even has one of those motors Porknbeaner can remember. I'm just over the hill from you. Here's a couple photos of it.
