Features HAMB Shoebox Club

Well this one has become my daily now for the last few weeks after sitting for the last 14 years. It’s been on the family since new and the other day my wife and I went grocery shopping and after thinking about it it’s been over 40 years since it has had the family’s groceries put into the trunk.

 

Wow, well done!~

 

Been awhile since ive been on here . Norm i tried years ago to settle the work you promised when we traded for this shoebox ? You stopped answering my calls . I believe you should make good on some work for me on another car . Thoughts Norm ???

Somehow I don’t see this ending well….

 

I had to add to my collection of shoebox’s now I have 2 1950 old school flathead v8 2 door sedans. So now I can play with the first one and customize it because I now have a nice one as well.

I do have one question though. I see so many caddy wheel covers on these, how???? I want them on mine. But at $250 for the last set I bought(1955) they are too expensive to try that again. They are too deep. Are you guys getting knock offs? There were no knockoffs in the 50s so they have to work somehow. Even my olds wheel covers only one set will work aren’t too deep but my spinner olds wheel covers won’t work. Right now ai have 1955 Crown Victoria wheel covers on it

 

Hi djweaz,
Nice collection you’ve got
I can’t say anything regarding the caddy caps but I’m interested too.
Btw what the tire sizes on the two cars, it seems the the on the green one are some inches bigger

 

57 Caddies work perfectly but they are through the roof for a set. I bought these one at a time until I built a set a Petit Jean swap meet for about $150 years ago. Now they are around $1000 for a really nice set and no they don’t reproduce the cap itself just the centers

 

Djweaz what part of Tennessee are you in?

 

These have been posted in other threads around here but these are my latest additions. The red one has been in the family since new, and the woodie was my dads pride and joy that I just drug out of a 17 year hibernation.

 

I’m in Murfreesboro. You?

 

I thought I got me a great deal when I bought the 56 Caddy covers. They are beautiful looking then I found that they were too deep. They look so good on a shoebox though

 

my latest 49 had a 50and a 51 first coupe
