Lemme know what ya think.

 

Yeah, it was fun! we didn't make the California trip, since we live 70 miles the other side of Tucson. My wife hauled our Airstream, our friend Dan drove his 58ish Ford pickup, his wife hauled their Silver Streak. I hauled my OT hooptie with my 59 Chevy truck.

I got pics of a few of the HAMB friendly cars...there were quite a few, which is neat.

 

Awesome pictures!! You can just see my 55 in the background in your selfie.

 

yup, I saw it parked over by the "show" cars all weekend

 

Any pics if that teal colored crew cab 60's Dodge?

^^^^I really like that 56 Model 150 two tone paint.^^^^
Can't read the plate from where it's from.
I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

took my junker out there to enter the hooptie challenge but rain had other plans

 

Ha!! Exactly!! That's The 55.

 

Stupid rain!! Come back for the Hooptie Challenge in a few weeks.
Stay tuned for details

 

I'm waiting for that! sure glad they're planning something. I went to all that trouble to build a hooptie, I spent about a week and $500 on it.

 

OK, this might be a stupid question, but, what in the world is a hooptie?

Bobby

 

It's the modern name for a jalopy.

 

Honestly I think this hooptie thing has big potential.....in my opinion....2 day deal at Fontana probably get 350 cars

 

The problem (from the HAMB perspective) is that pretty much any 1965 or older car that you build, that will make it down a drag strip, will probably be worth more than $3k. so I built a later model car (I got it for free, etc).

 

Thanks
