    I'm sure he doesn't consider it anywhere near finished, but it looks done enough for me.

    I don't know what catagory that this would be under. Dan Collins "LIMELIGHT" gets my vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! I forgot about Cole's '36. Can I add that too? Dan got this done just in time to have it at Paso at it's 1st big show. The truck is on it's way to the MoonEyes show in Japan as a special guest. One more thing......this truck was done all within a years time. KNUX!

    Rolf's coupe.........HANDS DOWN. The HAMB is all about TRADITIONAL rods and customs....doesn't get more traditional than his!
     
  11. The only one that tops that for me is Cole's 36...

    **Edit: I couldn't decide on a hot rod at first, there are really so many good candidates. While I've seen the Cochran coupe in person and it is downright amazing, I'm gonna go with Littleman's 'cause I followed the build and re-read the thread more times than I should admit.

  26. The essence of the HAMB...

    I like Rolf's Car, and Ryans car, and Littlemans car.

    But Rolfs car looks like every other well proportioned coupe on duece rails.

    Ryan did not build his car, it was built for him. But once again it is a good looking car.

    Littlemans coupe is freaking killer...

    But what makes a HAMB car to me is looks, inventiveness, and functionallity.

    So i'll put Redbeards wifes car up there for submission. Built it, made it proportional and looking good, but above all drove the piss out of it:

    Paso, Bonneville, Billetproof, and everywhere in between.

    I love how that car looks, the stance, huge whites, the chop, its really a killer set up, and we got to see it done step by step. Its not as finished as some others but its got a ton of style.

    I have to go with Bass' coupe. I saw it for the first time at the HCP but more importantly I heard it. It is definitely the baddest sounding MF out there. And I don't mean the volume, that idle kicks arse.
