    from van nuys

    My name is Chris Hamilton. I am 31 years old and from Van Nuys CA. My father Curt Hamilton (Cal Automotive, Hamilton Automotive) introduced me to hot rods/ and street rods, when I was a toddler. I have grown up around these cars and all the great people.

    I am currently building custom electric guitars with hand formed sheetmetal bodies. I have built numerous motorcycles, some of which have won awards at prominent shows. I have worked on Nostalgia Top Fuel Dragsters, Funny Cars, Trophy Trucks, Land Speed Motorcycles, Street Rods, and Tradional Hot Rods as well... Blah Blah :)

    I am in the process of building some customer projects as well: a Pre-War Style '29 A, various T's, a Bantam Coupe etc. ect. I also build custom show trophies, including all the awards for the Van Nuys 100th celebration, and the latest GNRS Von Dutch Pinstriper of the Year Trophy.

    The reason I am joining this forum is to connect with educated individuals, ask questions, and hopefully learn a thing or to. I am also here to scan the millions of threads and gather inspiration for future builds.

    Here are links to my guitar website, and a blog that is just basically a place for me to post pictures of shop projects. Also, there are posts of whats going on in my little world day to day.
