    [​IMG]:( My son's 59 chevy pickup got picked up today heading to Vegas He's owned it for 10 years, bought it when he was 14 years old and was a father/son project. Sold it here on the HAMB. There's a lot of Christmas/birthday and gifts in the form of parts on that truck . It's been part of the family.
    It's going to another father/son that is a HAMB member and they are taking it to the next level and going to do the metal work and paint it. That eases the pain a bit, and he has been promised first refuseal if they ever want to sell. Good luck guys hope you enjoy it as much as we have.[​IMG]

    I've always liked that truck...the stance and the wheel/tyre combo is ***s!

    So what's he buying/bought now????:D
     
  4. I like everything about that truck! Very tasteful....especially the wheel/tire combo. They go well with the truck and its stance.

    It will be missed from our area. I remeber how bad *** that look flying down the highway. But knowing you Raff the next one that you and your son build will be just as Bad *** as this was. Hell I can't wait for your little coupe to come out of hiding.

    He had an offer on a old farm house with a chunk of land but it fell through. He's still looking for a house, most of us have been there.
    When he builds a car again it will be a model A
    Thanks for the compliments guys he apreciates it.

    Wow Raff, that IS a great looking truck!
    You guy's did a nice job on it and i'm sure the new 'team' will do it justice..
    I know very well about the father-son project's, and the car part's as gift's as well..
    My first car was a 57 Chevy..at the time i was a complete idiot in car's and not just an idiot as i am now...so pop's helped me where he could..
    Lot's of sentimental value in that bucket of bolts....
    I still have it though, i don't think i could ever find it in me to sell it unless it was life or death..

    Wish your son the best of luck in the search for a place...

    Did you throw in an extra set of snow tires? I am getting pretty sick and tired of these Buffalo Winters.

    Good luck with yuor next project.
