PLAY NICE, or I will turn these cars around,
Right Now...

& no ice cream !!!

 

Here are Ryan's HAMB rules!
All I'm asking is if there are new ones, clarify them please!
"Rules:
1. No profanity in subject lines.

2. No political/religious/racial posts at all. No exceptions.

3. No Porn.

4. We cover traditional '65 and older American cars only. All other threads will be deleted. We don't cover rat rods, muscle cars, mustangs, or VWs.

5. No commercial posts.

................................

Guidelines:
1. If in doubt, don't post it.

2. Stay on-topic and relevant with your posts; OT posts aren't generally appreciated by our membership.

3. Gotta easy question? Try using the search function first.

4. While we don't require "introductions," some members do appreciate them so it might be a good idea for you to do one here. Just introduce yourself and let folks know what you are all about.

5. As mentioned throughout these guidelines, the H.A.M.B. focuses on TRADITIONAL hot rods and customs. Posts pertaining to traditionally inspired, but not quite period perfect belong on the main forum found here. Please note that we don't focus on things such as modern fuel injected motors, big-inch wheels, frame clips, after market independent suspensions, etc... at all on the H.A.M.B.. As such, posts that stray away from the "traditional inspired" will be deleted.

6. Posts about period correct hot rods should go here.

7. Posts about period correct customs should go here.

Hmmmmmm "We cover traditional '65 and older American cars only"

 

The Buick & Chevy are leaning in the corner as if on a race track, they can't be goin that fast.

 

Typical corner roll on those '59s.

 

Yeah I used to surf at Port Kembla beach regularly,not wrong about "blue bottles" I've been stung by them half of my life,haha,bloody thingsI live about 6 hours drive North of Warrawong now in a town called Forster,driving my Chevy to the beach and riding longboards

 

Sure, it had both. While the 2dr sedan was the lowest priced Bel Air and this one is a six cylinder, it has white walls, outside mirror, back up lights and bumper guards.

 

That picture has to be a later shot than a GM promo shot when the car was new HINT: check out the late model wire wheel covers

 

Thanks for that support Pat

We're a bit more lucky in NZ than Aust and the UK.
We had a high proportion of USA cars imported RHD from Canada. Whereas Aust and the UK had their local assemblies

The problem is the "Grey Area" which some members get upset over.....The Homebuilt cars and purpose built cars. [Which is very traditional in every sense]

USA homebuilt cars are American............. But what about a NZ built Hotrod or Sprintcar etc [a Non American built copy of an American trend]

Here is a good example.....
The Late Gus Burke from Christchurch NZ in his homebuilt B/Altered.
NZ Built Chassis. [NZ]
Fiat Topolino body [Italy]
Vauxhall Cresta Engine [UK]
Wade supercharger [UK]

The only thing USA is the Ford Mainline rear end , and Altereds were a USA class of race car

 

Thank you for posting the already posted rules and regulations. We already have moderators who do an excellent job and we also have Ryan. Let them make decisions on content and lets just enjoy this thread and site.

 

Please.
Nobody is "making decisions" for the moderators.
A previous poster said there were no rules about American cars, THAT'S why I posted the rules.
VERY few of you ever read them.
I'm NOT COMPLAINING, jeeesh, just asking for clarification.
FROM RYAN, . NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!

 

Yes to heater, no to radio.

 

Read post # 170818 [page 5694] from Ryan himself

 

Lets get this thread back on track. Instead of running off the road

Taken in Fresno [1964]

 

What state would this be? National park or Highway?
This would be cool to actually see

 

Ford blue correct for 61?

I know later they were chevy orange at least for 64
