Calling all Metal-men - HAMB Chop '06 - So. Cal.

See, Hamb'rs obey laws at all times......

 

great job gang

 

I'm glad to hear everyone enjoyed the cookies.....eveyone except for Norm I guess! You guys deserved them for all the hard work that went into the chop. Thanks so much for keeping us posted on the gathering. It was fun watching. Blue skies, sunshine, shorts, t-shirts and hot rods in Nov.... do you fellows realize how lucky you are?

 

I have to second what Killer said. It was amazing to see that happen all in one day. The car came out great, everybody contributed in their own way and to have that many people working on something and not stumbling over one another is a tribute to all who were there.

P.S. I finished 5th overall in the trail run (out of 90 runners), not bad for a 41 year old man (1100 ft of elevation gain in 2.6 miles). Must have been the carne asada tacos and Denise's cookies!

 

This was an awesome experience for me (never done this). Meeting the HAMB folks was cool too! Killer (Jason) does awesome work. Seeing him work was worth it. Norm's hospitality and workmanship was A-1! Again thanks for inviting folks over to see this happen. Also, I think, CharlieLedSled(?) and his team were making things happen on that Ford. Great people, food, helping out here and there, and watching the transformation of a car being chopped is a good day in my book. 5051 was all over that car, good job man! Thanks again and see you folks at Mooneyes.

It's a nomad bro.they just flow that way.

 

thank you norm for being the host with the most. i had fun, it was really cool to watch a chop in person. i saw the "after" pictures and she looks great! your a lucky man.
denise, your cookies were the first thing i zeroed in on and they were soo tastey, thank you.
i really enjoyed meeting all you fellas and lady, i felt welcomed and not the least bit in the way. and to think my eating, drinking and gawking was a level 5 contribution...sweet.
i'll most definately stop by and say hello at mooneyes.
THANKS again for a great time!

 

Was wondering when you would show up on this thread Ryan. It would not have happen if it wasn't for you and the "MADNESS" that you have created called the Jalopy Journal-HAMB! So I see you made a West Coast Drags, huh? I will have to draught that date down when I get my HAMB calender! Thanx again Ryan for having this Monster that you control......"VIVA LA HAMB"! KNUX!

 

very cool... looks like good times and good work...

 

Thanks for the compliemnts.

Ill going to continue to keep posting updates on the car as I keep going.

Im shooting for the mooneyes show. How can I miss that!

That license plate idea earlier.....Im going to see if I can grab it for the car. That would totally fit it.

Thanks for the compliments, im so happy and still cant believe that its all over.

Thumbs Up!

 

Guess what! The shirts Came Finally!

 

looks good. you guys did a great job.. maybe next year we can do that in vegas on my 51.. the HAMB rules !!!

 

POSER!!!

 

Hey Norm,

' had a good time on the HAMB chop 2.6, never done a gang-bang
chop before. Usually these take a month+. and you jus' wish it
would go away. Killer&Charlieled nailed the roof line, early on, and
from there it jus' flowed. Are ya starting to put together a muddin'
crew?

Thanx,

Swankey Devils C.C.

 

FARTING!

 

Wish I could've talked to you more. Kinda interupted you eating. Well there's always Mooneyes!

 

Or the lycra shorts...

 

Glad to actually be part of it.

 

Lycra is for cycling Bob, I run in normal shorts. But I can send you a pic in Lycra if you really need one.

 

Better save it for the Christmas cards....

 

Chopped 50 Ford - very cool! The layed back look is awesome.

To all HAMBers who lent a hand "WAY TO GO!"

Hey Bob,
Was that comment directed at me because i posed for your banner drawing? Or was it meant for Burbs imposter move on the work scene?

 

The "Imposter".

 

So,with the sleaves,when they take out the Sharpe to write the number on your arm,do they just say FUCK IT,and write it on your forehead?

 

same here.........there will be a next time M neyes would like to go but got too much going on for another road trip so soon

 

Shirts...what shirts. I opened the box and it was empty.

 

D'OH!

It's not like I really deserve one. the only metal working I did was on the PBR cans...
