It seems like the H.A.M.B. spits out cool model-a coupes on a weekly basis, doesn't it? The latest is still in final construction, but I just discovered... <P><P>To read the rest of this blog entry from The Jalopy Journal, click here.
some cars look like they're flying when they're standing still.. this one looks like it's midway through a serious launch.. I love it!
I was following this post, man what a great car. I love all the details and the great craftsmanship! very inspiring indeed.
the wheel treatment is very cool! the gold spun disc with the open center is very unique! are those stock with the centers cut out?
This is such a sweet ride, i too was following the thread, the details are what caught my eye. It seems like Hambers are starting to step it up with the details... fun to watch.
Just alittle info on the discs.... They are actually 1935 Packard wire wheel covers used to protect your wires from the dirt and snow. I still have to get the hubcap centers. They are not cheap at all, but will finish off the wheel
Oh and for all the guys who dont like the stance, its changed. I got bigs and littles. The car is staying level, might have a few degrees forward, but nothing crazy like in the pics. I like my car's body line to be flat. Thanks for all the great comments guys. Im gonna go sand on it some more. I have changed chrome guys so thats gonna be awhile now. Thanks again and Ill keep you updated.

Ed-U-ma-cate me on those crazy carbs.... I dig the look. Stromberg back draft? What is the bolt pattern? What did they come on? Are they expensive, hard to find? Thanks, Rich
Stromberg WW with a Backdraft top. Came on Studebakers 53-55 to clear the low hood line. square 4 bolt pattern I want to know about the air cleaners. I have a stack of those carbs for a log manifold I am building for my Stude motor and really like those air cleaners. TZ
Ive been working on this car for a year and a half and planning on the revealbeing atthe grand national roadster show 2008. Still crossing my fingers for that, but it should be done before that! Thanks for all the support
