Welcome, Matt Thanks for takin' the time to join us Saturday. While you don't have the long-distance award, you sure came quite a distance. Here's the build Matt was tellin' us about: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=192175 It's a little easier seein' the pics on the thread! Need a couple of pair of reading glasses to see those cell phone pics!!! We'll have to discuss organizing a HAMB & Egger Garage/Shop Tour in the near future and making Matt's shop one of the stops.
Next Saturday[5/17] is Match Race Mania at Joliet. We get booked in for the show. Cool event, car show, nostalgia funny cars and dragsters, outlaw superstock, Chicago Wise Guys,and a U S 30 reunion. All day into the evening. This was a great event last year. Hope to see some of you there, look for the black 2002 camaro in the outlaw superstock row in the pits.
Sorry Kevin, Tiger Mark & I wont be at the DICE party at the shop. Still love to see Meg and you for breakfast.
A wedding. Wouldnt you know it. And that is the reason we are not going to the Rust Revival in MO. We will be at the Czars Barb BQ this Sunday. Hey SW HAMB & EGGERS, Who's going to the Czars event?
Gonna miss you guys tomorrow, Match Race Mania at Joliet. Anybody else going to GG Indy? Saw some open houses at local shops, Meet and Greet fri/sat. Think I'll try to lead the Hot Rod of the Year road trip again if they let me.See ya next week.
Sorry we missed breakfast. The Friday night wedding kept us out late. We are going to the Czars Barb B Q on Sunday. Any one in from our group? The location is on the Czars board & HAMB calendar.
kennys a smart racer and a good guy.he had his mustang out saturday at match race mania, we were worried we wouldnt have enough running outlaw superstocks, but at the last minute two of the regulars got their stuff together in time. that little ford runs 8.60s all day without leaning on it. we will have to meet sometime.see ya
Nope, headin' to the Rust Revival tonight and next week's the NHRA at Rt.66. Summer's pretty tough, too much goin' on!!!
I'm going to Chucks for breakfast , Thinking of visiting the Drive Chicago Car Show downtown and then home by noon for my grandsons graduation party.
Since I blew off the Paducah trip this weekend, I suppose I'll be there. Still gotta eat. (p.s there's a car show in Crown Point, In, this weekend also, at the fairgrounds.) Stu
Dont think we will be at breakfast this Sat. June 14. Going on our annual Route 66 ride to St. Louis with our friends from the Mother Road Rally group on the Ultra. The following weekend is Road Rockett Rumble. Leaving Thursday AM for that. Who's going in our group? Larry., are you still in too? Cant wait to see Deb and Rob again.
I'm tied up this Saturday. Our deaalership is having our 8th Annual Car show. (yes, it's one of those kinds of shows) We usually get around 150 cars, but since we're debuting the 2008 Challenger SRT8, I suspect will end up turning people away. If anyone is interested, it's an open show and it's free. T-shirts, Dash plaques to the first 150 cars. This Saturday from 9am-3pm. Jack
Who all's coming for breakfast this Saturday? I'm gonna try to make it, it's really tough during the summer. Seems like multiple events happenin' every weekend. Yeah, Gina, we're headin' to the RRR early Friday, see you and Mark there!!! We'll be tryin' to help Debb and Rob - they haven't found out what under-achievers we really are yet!!!
who knows, maybe. i've been eating too much lately. last saturday at the btb road block, my worlds collided. tiger mark from the saturday morning breakfast gang met val from my friday lunch group. it has been easier to make lunch in cal city on fridays than to have to get up to get to chuck's by 7:00 on saturdays.
Has any of you seen the posting for a 1950 chopped mercury from Oak Lawn, IL. The guy posting it is VWILLYS41. He is a new HAMB member, only since April 08. Nice ride. Has everyone seen it in the area before? Did anyone invite him to breakfast at Chuck's yet? I would, but wont be there for the next 2 weekends.
Going to try this saturday if weather is good.Went to GG Indy thurs. Nice all day thurs, friday nice until about 6pm, and then it rained non stop until I left with most others mid day Saturday.My buddy got a final five pick for hot rod of the year. First time out with the car, had 30 miles on it before we left for Indy.Had lunch with Kirk Jones and Gary Meadors.That was cool.Rained 5 of the last 6 years. They wisely moved the event back one week for next year. Now maybe we can go to the races at 66, and go to Indy the following week, I hope.I needed a 32 Chris Craft down there instead of a Ford.6-10 inches of rain in towns around Indy! See Ya.....
Going to miss you guys again, racing up by Green Bay at W.I.R. saturday night. A mere four hour tow. Still havent cleaned up the bottom of the sedan from the Indy floods. What you dont see dont hurt you.Miss ya, be there soon.
You're kiddin me! Right .You must of been coming back in from a hard nite.I was sitting in a booth along the east wall and not at the usuall long table. Left at 8:20. Most went to the Road Rocket Rumble in Indy.
