HAMB AUCTION - Finally paying forward

Deviator WINS!!!!!

Okay, this is nothing compared to all the freinds I've made,
deals I've struck, information I've gathered and ******** I've happily slopped around here on the glorious H.A.M.B., but It's my contribution...

It's a hand-etched 3/4" thick peice of granite that stands around 13" tall and 12" wide... I know the chopped/welded 3/4" wrenches for a stand look kinda cheesey, but it's all I could come up with right now.

Ryan gave me permission to duplicate the H.A.M.B. logo, the photo of the car on the salt flats was also used by permission by the photographer (chime in, I forgot who snapped the pic) - and I believe this is a HAMBer car, god I hope so... a "Throttler" maybe?

HERE'S THE CATCH;
This auction begins now, and runs until the week before the H.A.M.B Drags at MoKan Dragstrip in Joplin Mo. Aug. 26th 2006 - YOU MUST ATTEND THE EVENT TO RECIEVE THIS PEICE! I won't ship it, so don't bid if you ain't planning on coming to the drags! I plan on doing one peice each year, and only for the drags. If you ain't there, it goes to the next highest bidder who IS THERE!

Enjoy, happy bidding, hope you like it!

This pic is just to give you the idea of it's size---

 

That is KICK ***!

$150 to start it off, I know it'll never stand til the end.

ty Jerry! That's where I was gonna start it, just 'cause I wouldn't mind keepin' it!

 

Oh yeah... here's the pic I started with---

 

Can I get a straight on shot of that to use as my wallpaper?


jerry

 

bttt and sticky please. can't bid, cause unfortunately cant make it out to the drags this year.

 

Wow! That ****'s amazing!

 

Straight shot - no... 'cause black granite is like a mirror. But I am gonna boost the pixels up on the camera and try to get a bigger, more detailed one. Stay tuned!

 

Amazing work! I'm always blown away by the artistic talent on this board.
I'm even more impressed with people who carve or etch...working in the 'nagative' puzzles me...Wish I was going or could afford it! good work

bryan

 

i dont get to go cause im in a weddin but that thing is incredible!!!!!i worship people with these talents..and hate them a little!! great work bro >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>breeder
but ill still bid 200 for my buddy rp who gets to go!!!

 

ditto i say that is simply outstanding art work , i would definatelly bid but cant make it out to the drags either maybe next yr ...but if you ever make another let me know i want one...hell if you can do my car that would be great...

 

Just Plain INCREDIBLE! You, sir, are a ruler. I plan on going to the drags, and if I can find a windshield for my car that doesn't force the loss of a limb, I plan to bid before the auction is over.

 

Holy **** that so kool, I'm a broke ******* but...i've got a gently used left nut I'd be willing to part with

 

Any car, any size, anytime...

 

$250 (far, far too low but its more than I can afford right now)

(this makes my auction look pathetic )

 

do you do shows??havin a show next year and would love to see your display......do you do family pics also??

 

can you etch my gl*** eye?

 

Family pics, your gl*** eye, your dog, your girlfreind (clothing optional)... just click my signature link to see my web-gallery.

 

cool - back up to almost a dozen auctions... whatta generous group we've got here.... donators and bidders alike.

I'm so proud !

 

Okay... who took the picture I talked to, and who's car is it? I can't find the photographer doing "search"

 

don't know who took the photo but you sure as hell improved on his great photo work.
keep up the great work.

later dude

OUTFREAKINGSTANDING WORK. That is so NICE!!! Not going though.

 

That used to belong to Decon Baker, he is Deviator here on the board. He is one of the Throttlers of SLC. He recently sold the car and it is in SC or NC now.
