    Here's a similar project that took place in San Jose, Costa Rica about 8 years ago. The C-123 cargo plane was shot down in Nicaragua during the Contra/Sandinista 1980's guerilla war and left for dead.

    The plane was moved from the SJO Airport to Manuel Antonio...about 4 hours away. Now, it's a sweet place to grab dinner and a stiff drink after a long day in the jungle. Pura Vida!

    Not to mention that it's basically a 'kit' car
    28 Brookville body, Pinkees custom ch***is, 5 inch Superbell drop axle, SoCal disc brakes, Walker Rad, new corvair steering box, Currie 9 inch rear end, Pete and Jakes ladder bars with quarter eliptile springs. New 1932 headlights. The list goes on and on

    I could have bought all those parts and ***embled my kit wrapped around a hemi with a 350 turbo ******, anybody could have.

    It looks neat, the paint is what's in style for these days including the pinstripping.
    And in general what's not to like about the car? I even like the wires and the stance.
    But I have seen many people here suggest that certain cars are not hamb friendly because they have disc brakes.

    Disc brakes or kit car or not, The car is still *****in. 28 Wire Wheels? Hamb firendly? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and rules are made to be bent

    The 29 roadster is a far cry form being what most of the HAMBers would considered a kit car.... My reply to the builder Nice Job and well done.... If you dont like a particular car I guess its your right to voice an opinion.. Now lets see some of your work....

    Certainly tons of off the shelf parts but a far cry from a kit. Good luck tellin some Hambers that thier brookvilles are kit cars. I build em all bro and I know the differnce. Thanks for the good comments though(I think).
    Now back to pic post already.
