    You really turned that car around! It looks a million times better with the new colors ... and that 327 is gonna be a rip with the 5-speed.

    i think you should paint it hot pink and put thin whires on it with black painted steelies- then lift it up like 10 inches with 33's on it and move to manteca-

    Damn Tommy--Love the new color & look!!

    That chopped purple 56 is off the hook & the maroon 55 Chev hrdtp with the 54 Chevy turnsignals mated to the corvette grill is an old kustom from NY. I hated how the 54 sections were used cause it threw off the whole front of the car to me but regardless i always dreamed of owning that car someday. From what i understand its in Texas now...Anyone know if this is true?

    Looks damn nice...colors, stance are all pretty sweet. Fatter whites would be cooler, but roast the old ones off first, and post a video of you doing it.

    hey, I just saw that thing on saturday getting fill-up at the Arco in Livermore. It really caught my eye, (enough to make me decide I needed gas all of a sudden too). I didn't know that it was a HAMBER's car. Kudos! that thing looks Waaaaaay better now.
