Now I Can Die And Go To Hotrod Heaven!!!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Bad Bob, Aug 23, 2006.

  1. The new Car Kulture Deluxe just came in the mail,and the article about my sons car is in it! I'm so STOAKED!!!It might not seem like much to some of you guys,but i'm just a guy who took Auto Shop in High School,with dreams. It mentions Todd Zimmerman(fordole500)which is cool,cause I don't want people to think I built it. I've bought car mags all my life. Never thought I would be in one. Can't stop smiling,I don't care!!!

    You should be excited.
    Now I need to buy the mag to read the article.
    Congrats!

    regards,
    DJ
     
  12. That's cool man........now I can go buy the mag.
     
  13. The article has a few misquotes. When I was 7,at a car show,Ed Roth gave me that plastic German helmut. But he wasn't selling "memoribilia". In '67 it wasn't memoribilia,it was new. Thought that was funny. I did love my first car,'67 Bug,but I would have rather had the '32 3window.My dad wouldn't let spend $4500. for a car that didn't run. It just needed a motor. It was kinda started to be a Hotrod,'70s style. I've always liked 50's style.

    Yep, Congrats Bob.

    I got it in the mail, and was pleased to see you in there.

    I love that car!

    BTW. The part about Mike Ness...He's wearing a Hummels Towing T-Shirt....well, That place is 10 minutes from here, and owned by a crazy old dude.

    I took it to show him, and he was amused that some dude on the west coast was wearing one of his shirts.

    Actually, His quote was....Who the fuck is that kid wearing my shirt!:D

    Bad Bob, your sons car is also in the new ROD & CUSTOM, in the LA ROADSTER show coverage, i picked it up this morning, congrats dude!!
     
  20. If you're in Anaheim Hills,you need to come to Starbucks next tuesday,at Village Center,7PM. Trying top get some local HAMBers together. YL blvd and Village Center Drive.
     
  21. Good deal Bob. If I park next to you my car can be in a mag. See you Tuesday. Brandon and Court are trying to make it. Mike
     
  22. Yea,I bought it to see the Paso coverage,and saw the car. That's "sandimasguys" shoebox next to my sons. The guy from Car Crazy,was filming them too,but I didn't get to talk to him.

  25. Any news on your car,or a job? If the Starbucks thing takes off,you gotta come!
     
  26. Was reading through the magazine at work today,and there's a guy looking for a '50 Merc to rent for his wedding. Could this be the next BIG thing? Renting out your ride,so some guy can look "COOL" at whatever event. You know there's guys who go to Daytona Bike Week and Sturgis and rent bikes to be a "BIKER" for a weekend! You can get a fake ponytail,fake tattos,fake GLUE-ON goatees. Thats it! I'll go to shows and sell fake tattos,used,cuffed Levis,Dirty old boots,palmade,Camel no-filters,old t-shirts,and Ratrod rentals! The sign can say BE A WEEKEND GREASER,we got it all. I'm gonna be rich!!!(now interviewing for investers). I know a certain guy who lives here in Yorba Linda,who's a closet computer geek. He'll be the first to call,I bet!
     
  27. Is the new mag on the shelves yet? My son wants one and I can't find one. I guess the subscribers get them first.
