    :rolleyes:...I'm 3rd owner of this Hamb Thread built Hotrod...still enjoying it's raw, nastiness...it's changed a little but wore it's well thought out additions well...

    I believe that's Jerry smiling in the background of the top pic...the architect behind it's being...high fives Hamber...;)

    This years change will be adding cycle style fenders up front...a period correct addition and easy to swap out if desired...

    I did this 63 chev wagon back in the early 90's. I called it the thursday night special because I was freshly divorced and I had custody of the kids (age 8 and 12) and felt guilty about spending too much time in the garage, So every Thursday after I put the kids to bed I went in the garage and worked on this wagon all night, got the kids on their school bus in the morning and then I went to work. This went on for about 6 Months. This wagon was a rusty mess with a smokey 283 and glide and after a bunch of all nighters it was a black lowered with shaved handles and a 350 4 speed cool wagon...
