Well, here we go again. Another year coming to an end and the start of the next right around the corner. Same premise as in previous years, so post your thoughts, plans, projects, etc. HAMB appropriate content only please. And Merry Christmas ya filthy animals!
No BIG plans here. Hoping just to make it to a few small events and cruise-ins. Need to make an effort to stay in better touch with friends and what little Family that I have.
Well now @chryslerfan55 as being a filthy animal - I resemble that remark I'll have ya know - as far as the future goes - If i wake up the next day it's already a good day - the rest is up to me - i hope to spend more time with family and friends also - I too wish all a Merry Christmas and a safe and better New Year!
The last few years I’ve been working on the house and gathering parts so hopefully this coming year I can make use of all the stuff that I have ac***ulated for various projects. I’m wanting to drive the woodie more and start hitting shows and swap meets with my granddaughter, she has been har***ing me for a road trip
Lots of plans. There will be big push to get my speedster ch***is completed into a rolling/functioning ch***is. Just bought a bunch of stuff to get me there so excited to pick it up next week and get started. Always lots to do around the house in terms of projects. Also will get into better physical/mental shape.
Every year I resolve to work less and enjoy myself more, but somehow the opposite always happens. Maybe I should just resolve to make better bad decisions...
Like everyone else. Hehe. And I couldn't use the Long Ram intake. And when is the last time you saw a 440 with a 6x2? Probably never.
Hope to get my V8 Corvair on the road but it has the wrong kind of wheels for the board. Also hope to get my 1917 RPU on the road but it can’t be on the board because of the read end. Other than that, hope nobody has to bury me
Hope to retire, work around the house, enjoy the coupe more, and start building the T Bucket. Hopefully all of the above before I am planted. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my HAMB brothers and sisters.
I hope to get all the rocker panels solid and welded up on two projects in my garage. Would be nice, and a long time coming.
Get the 261 cleaned up for my 56, install the black bench seats I have for it and clean up the rest of the interior and drive the wheels of that sun of a gun !!!
My plan for 2026 is to get the 60 Ranchero as close to running as I can, maybe sell or trade the 55 Tbird, blow the money, and drive the 56 F100 as much as time and cir***stance will allow. Oh, and not die.
Sell my '51 Merc BIG project and find something I actually have hopes of getting on the road before I'm pushing up daisies.
My plans this coming year are more about building some trailers. One will be a camper. Best wishes to all.
Find and fix the transmission leak, finish the emergency brake linkage, install the headliner, cab marker lights and roof, get and install gl***, upholster seats, design and fabricate an express bed, make a front bumper out of stainless steel bars, install seatbelts, begin the long, arduous process of ***ling, inspecting, licensing and insuring the '29 AA and maybe drive it to Cruise Night in Belton, MO before the end of 2026. I give myself about a 20 % chance of accomplishing all of that.
