Thanks guys. Love em. Keep em coming

 

I really like the interior of this '49 Ford I took off the H.A.M.B. a few months ago. This is the way they should be done!

 

I agree. Very tastefully done.

 

mine

 

Dig the diamonds in the seats

 

Saw this one at Lead East

 

Heres mine - some day it will get paint........

 

That is going to be a gorgeous car with paint. Hell, it's gorgeous in primer. I love it.

 

Heres mine, shes far from done but getting close!

 

my buddy 51box

 

My old one

 

Love the stance

 

One of my old ones before/after. Had a lot of fun with that car.





And another I had a few years ago, just nosed/decked, lowered and shaved, added some goodies and sent it down the road. Had a flat 6/3 spd. Barrel of Monkeys! Almost as fun as the "When Harry Met Sally" tape that came in the tape player.

 

Love the suede

 

Love the Buick headlights. Looks like you used the tops of the fenders? Looks good.

 

Mine, before I sold her!!! I miss it terribly!!!

It Started out something like this...



Then went to this...









My buddy (5'9") standing next to it, all aired out, to show how low it was...

 

Oh man, Why would you sell that beauty? Love it. Any idea where it ended up?

 

SOLD it to put a down payment on my first house. Hell, I had to take advantage of the housing market here in California!!! It is in Florida, sold it to another Hamber and he should have it finished in a month or so. Here is the list of goodies it had when I sold it.
