A HAMB exclusive: Hemi Model A Coupe Comparison

It's on the cover of Rod&Custom this month. But both cars are BAD ASS!

 

Holy shit. These are some of the most inspirational A pics I have ever seen.


Do you have any hi-res versions? (pics 1,3,6 and 7)
My laptop could use a new wallpaper, and those pics are about as close to porn as I could get away with.

Two well executed hotrods.

They compliment each other as well.

Guess I missed the part about it being sold, will the new owner be leaving it the same or want to make it his own, that is the big question.

 

It is for sale again the last i heard. The owners is on the Hamb now so maybe he will speak up about it. It is a tight for for him

 

awesome

 

I was going to pick a fav, but each has so much I like that I can't. I would be proud to drive either one. Great post, great pics.

 

I love both of those cars. Thanks for sharing Bass. Good job.

 

Seriously I love this post. I love both the cars and I love both the different little subtle things.

And I have an idea.

 

very nice.

 

Anyone want to take a stab at my earlier question?



Pretty please?

 

That is one of the differences. The most noticable difference between the 28-29 and the 30-31 are the windshield 'pillars'. The 28-29 pillars go all the way down to the bottom of the body while the 30-31 stop at the top of the cowl.

 

The '30 is original in this area, I'm not sure about the '29. Anyone?

 

Haring, the Bass coupe does have a '32 roof, if that matters... How much of it though???????

 

is the grenades frame pinched or is the cowl pie cut or.... the headers are covering it up in the side shot. bass's car has a pie cut cowl, correct?

 

Great pic's, fab post....

I absolutely love the look & feel of both...

But in my humble opinion, there's just "something" about the Green Grenade that makes it a little more....

I can't even put it in words...

But if I absolutely had to choose between them, it would be the Grenade...And I don't know why!!

 

I think it's the chop. makes it a bit meaner looking. I love em both equally though.....

 

Didnt you get your coupe with a section and you just undid that work loudpedal? I feel like I've seen it referred to as anti-sectioning, or the likes. And I believe a may have read that you did this with your because you didnt like the sectioned look.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt that why these guys are saying you altered the body?

 

Race?


Thats just what I was thinking....whos is faster?

 

Hey Brian, that is one of the best write ups i've seen and enjoyed it tremendously

 

with out a doubt, a cool test drive............must be nice.

 

Simply... amazing.

I don't know where to start, so I'll just shut up and keep staring.

 

They are all inspirational. Who is the new owner of the green grenade and is it really for sale?

 

I wanna see pics of the alt/waterpump? trick, flywheel driven setup tooo................any chance of that?........I like the anti sectioning, it works great, and the sedan doors.......Im too scared to cut up perfect doors though to take that mod onboard for myself .............Bert

 

Madness...thanx for sharin Bass...great shots !!

Rat
