Well,...I was gonna just check out the HAMB real quick before going to bed. Then I saw this thread. Un-freakin-believable!!! It's all like some elaborate hoax! I checked the calendar.... April 1st was seven weeks ago. Sled, you're doing the "lowerds work", keep it up! Ten pages so far, and just when I think you've logged off, BAM! there you are again with more. I had no idea all that 'tin' was down there! I'm soooo enjoying the pics & stories....please keep 'em coming!

Keep an eye out for a good running old hearse out there for me..Might make a deal with you for some things I might have..
Any illegal sneaking into the US WITH a vintage car should be granted amnesty. Bring enough and we grant citizenship.

Hi Sled, I'm amazed just like the others Are you the guy who owns the site: www.mexicansn.se ? I had the same reaction when I found the site several monthes ago: "Holy sh..T" If ever my deal falls threw with the atlanta car guy, I would sure contact you then, and take the first flight to mexico...damn
hi leadsledolds,definately cool stuff..like very much the white dia de los muertos shift knobs... can i get 1 or 2 ??? they are resin made or??? well,since some time already i planned 1 of my kustom mercs 49/ 51 kustomized this mexican way somehow...of course got the sarapes ( mexican blankets) but was lookin something more classy in the details wich handmade knobs with calaveras (skulls ) or so... well, let me know about your stuff..do you craft em??
sa va romain,YEP...did'nt wanted to make public ads here on this thread but that's me gettin the cars there anyway,i'm behind all this mexican thing cause my a guy in Sweden is takin care of the EU logistics and the sales there that must be someone makin the dirty job,smellin rust in the fields ,don't ya think??? stay tuned,more shit to come....
well,junk time...for breakfast still.a friend told me about this small lot of early 50's chevys...so,we went there to take a look.... but nobody home,just dogs around.... took some pix,but mostly moredoor shit,nothin special to me..also car conds were kinda bad and rusted,not much worth it... but the fun is,you never know whatta find.....
do you like Buicks???i do!!! just found this rare sedanette 50 sittin since 20 years in this parkin cage...owner is is the 70's ....so,he'll sold it easily. besides the paint gone,car is really solid...i'm in the cleanin proces right now,and wanna started this comin week... got more pix ,if you guys want....
Sled Your finds and pics are very interesting. However, I would like to recommend that you do not spend any time at all working on any of these cars. Send them all to me. Heck, I can even help with shipping arrangements; let me call some contacts (like BEND, etc...). I'll gladly take them off of your hands and keep them in my garage. You'll never have to worry about them again! Besides, they look like they need way too much attention. Give my offer serious consideration. Thanks, RGV
just found this one days ago...body already done,solid car and running... yep,39 chevys coupe are not my favories but guess speedaddict here in hamb owns a really cool one....may i wrong??
36 coupes are not exinct,but many are here in Mexico...probbaly cause they were the cheapest ones to buy ... here a totally original one,just 1 repaint in 1962,car has been bought new and still in the same family,3 generations now... this car has aprox 3.000 miles original miles in all it's life...almost always stored safely....rust free. will never be sold,the old man will pass it to the sons... BTW,my mate aussie Tom appears in the pic,a great skilled metal man from down under...he like it very much!!!
show time....this was the Cuernavaca car show held by the local car club... city of cuernavaca is located 40 minutes away from DF (mexico city) and is a relaxed place to live,for rich guys will say....lot of great cars there... so,need to post couple more threads from the show,the ex-hacienda chosen for the event was awesome,a show itself... check it out....
Holy be Jesus sled!! What a fantistic thread. Don't forget the black n whites. Muchas gracias mi amigo. Mike
