Ill be coming down on sunday. Can I get my 97 ram close enough so I dont have to steal my kids wagon to haul my paints cause Im too lazy to carry them Its got traditional flames
I'm going...I might even bring the Chevy so long as the dashboard stops smoking and I can paint the wheels (john deer green) silver! Other wise I live down the street and might just ride the gay scooter!
Sorry to hear your not going to make it. I was really looking forward to meeting you. Battening down the hatches is much more important though. Good luck. FatHack, the spindles need to be handed off to someone who will be in town NEXT week, someones who's NOT going to the HAMB Drags. Are you saying your not attending? Of course since the spindles aren't mine, this will have to be cleared thru Charlie Chops.
Fat Hack...thanks for the props... Mike...I'm supposed to be gone next weekend, gonna miss the Woodward Cruise so's I can go down to Memphis to pick up 3 T coupe bodies...sorry I'll miss ya... HRTH...Steve, really, I'm not trying to be a dick, and, I'm not singleing anyone out, and it has nothing to do with being "cool enough", but dude, Pro Street is Pro Street, doesn't matter if it's an '02, '62, or a '32,...flat black, Candy Red, or purple and mauve,...it's still not "traditional"
[ QUOTE ] Pro Street is Pro Street, [/ QUOTE ] I agree with that but HRTH isnt really pro street It runs like it looks I heard it leave billet proof and pro street is just made to look like a race car and not run like one but its still not traditional and thats too bad the car is cool
Per a "Deadbeat" thats not a HAMB member, he asked me to post: This is a Deadbeat gathering, NOT BilletProof, there are NO rules at all regarding car year cut off or styling. Lots of the Deadbeats have cars that wouldn't qualify. Bring whatever you want, just come and have a good time. He also mentioned that car clubs will be parking together and they kind of already have that laid out. If ANYONE has any questions you can ask them here cuz they are watching this thread. See you all there!
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I plan to be there, and I will likely caravan with a few non-HAMBer friends. Hope to see ya'll there. -Joe [/ QUOTE ] cool - bring eric so i can kick his ass. [/ QUOTE ] You are on your own for that one. A couple of my friends that were in our bunch at Billetproof are planning to come. I may even convince my dad, "boob-hater", and his dad to attend. Boob-Hater (Brian) has the black bucket with the flathead and red wire wheels, that is usually at Frankenmuth, and his dad is the dude with the V-12 powered T-bucket.

CherryBlossom asked me what i want to do for my birthday and i think what i want to do is to work on MY model A for the weekend. have'nt worked on it since JANUARY!! i only have one year to get it finished (or close enough it looks like somethin) so that i can try to get it in RnC's Young Guns. after that i'll be too old ... i would really like to come and see everyone and i had a blast last year. we'll see...
Well Denise, I don't know what 'non-HAMB member Deadbeat' you talked to, BUT, that info that I was asked to post above, came straight from TWO Deadbeat's mouths'....namely, the 2 who own the shop where the show is going to be!! And, after just getting off the phone with them, was told AGAIN, if the car doesn't meet the above criteria, IT WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE LOT !!
[ QUOTE ] I can re-schedule a flight before Sept 15th with no extra charge, so I'm thinking of coming up the next weekend so it isn't a total loss. I know there won't be many HAMBers in town because of the Drags, but who will be there? Not neccessarily at the WDC, but just in town for a beer/coffee and BS? Mr.Gasser? Roadstar? Fuel Pump? [/ QUOTE ] isn;t the Woodward Dream Cruise the next weekend? If so, there will be TONS of people around!

[/ QUOTE ] Well then I guess the Deadbeats need to communicate between themselves. You know EXACTLY who communicated that to me and he asked me to post what I did. He also just stated all HAMB/GMB will be parking in front of the Mexican Resturant just like last year and any and all HAMB cars that wanna park there can. END OF STORY. YOU will NOT make ME out to look like I don't know what I'm talking about
CALM DOWN !! JESUS!, I'm just the messenger,.. anyone can bring anything they want,...have a nice day!
Your the one who got bent outta shape about the situation and needs to calm down. Talk to me with respect or not at all, got it
yes, lets all take a deep breath here. Randy was just the messanger here and there were some communacation issues between the members of the hosts of this very cool event. I'm still a DEADBEAT dad though
Jeebus guys! I didn't mean to start a pissin contest! I'm gonna drive my car down there. I built it to DRIVE. I couldn't give 2 shits less about what shows it will or will not get into. If I have to park on a side street, I don't give a fuck. I'm comin' to have a good time, and if any of you people think you can stop me, we've got a problem. Let's just chill the fuck out, and I'm sure we can ALL have a good time down there, ok???
I agree with you Steve. I really could care less where I park, Big Olds was built to cruz and I plan on taking the folks that have asked for rides in Big Olds CRUISEN, not parking.
Doesnt a lady allways deserve respect? i mean we are talking about tradition here any way. im sure back in 1957 a lady would not have to earn her repect?
i'll be there... i'll prolly be parking across the street at the autoparts store...i'm sure i'll have to fix all the crap that broke on the way down!! randy, did you say that there is flint parking reserved in front of the mexi restaraunt?? what time do i NEED to be there??
First off, I want to appologize to Ryan for wasting his bandwidth on sissy/high-school drama,...that's not what I come here for. Normally, I wouldn't do this, but, I feel I need to defend myself. And anyone this doesn't concern, don't get your panties in a wad, I cleared it with Ryan first. This thread was supposed to be to relay info and answer questions about the Broken Cruise...not become a platform for someone who feels they need to validate themselves constantly. The Broken Cruise started as a small get-together of friends to bring their cars, relax, bar-b-q, eat, and sling some One-Shot. It's now turned into an "event", which presents it's own set of problems. The Deadbeat's, who host this deal, and all their friend's who help, do an INCREDIBLE job, and DO have the right to decide which cars can park in their very limited space. The people who have been here before, know and understand that. They don't charge for any of this, it's all free!...the food, the entertainment, everything! Apparently, there was some mis-communication and mis-information between some Deadbeat's club members, and myself,....no big deal, happens all the time, and it was about to all be straightened out and corrected on this thread, by us, when some "johnny-come-lately", "jump-on-the-traditional car bandwagon" wannabe, who has never even been to the show before, had to stick their ass in where it doesn't belong!....and it has happened before!,...(BilletProof Detroit),...but I never said anything about it, and let it slide, being the gentleman that I am. That's not gonna happen again. Respect?....your reputation earns you respect...you build your own car, or attempt to build your own car, or even try to learn how to work on your own car, I can respect that...even if you didn't build your own car, but you're up front and honest, I can respect that too,...hell, there's a million ways to earn respect... ...but having a pussy between your legs and making cookies, DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY COMMAND RESPECT!! Kritz,...yes, you and Steve(HRTH), and the rest of the Flint crew, have spots in front of the mexican restaurant with the Midland and Bay City boys,...you don't have to park across the street. Everyone is welcome, drive what ever you want. If anyone has a problem with me, I'll be there, I'm not hard to find... Ryan, again, sorry, and thanks for letting me speak my piece. This won't happen again.
FUCK YOU Randy! I called a friend yesterday to ask him about our plans for last nite and a Deadbeat answers the phone all pissed off at what YOU posted and asked me to respond on the HAMB. He asked me to post exactly what I did. Your the one who goes shooting off at the mouth that I don't know what I'm talking about. and yeah, it has happened before, YOU coming up to ME at the Detroit Autorma and telling me I can't get in to BilletProof unless I change my wheels on Big Olds. Well FUCK YOU, my wheels have been around since the 60's, you think I was just going to take that shit from you, hell no, I contacted Kirk and told him what you were saying. Seems like you were staying the same shit to other folks as well. Poor Randy, got his hand slapped by Kirk and it's all my fault, and now he doesn't like me... boo, hoo hoo, aks me if I give a shit. As far as respect goes, respect isn't related to cars asshole, it's related to life. Treat people with respect and kindness and in return a person should be treated the same. All you would have had to do was apolgize for talking to me the way you did at Autorama and the whole thing would have been dropped, but no you carry on and on and wanna air the dirty laundry on the internet. Why? wasn't the nasty PM you sent to me enough?? Talk about childs play. and the reason I've never been to the BDC before?.... I was actually cruzn my hot rod 6,000 miles to Speed Week at B'ville this time last year. You wanna see a poser.... look in the mirrror.
Im really glad to see that a couple of older adults know how to fucking muzzle it, in order to keep the peace among common friends. You dont like someone fine, there plenty of muther fuckers out there I dont like, you tolerate them out of respect for the common friendships involved, if those friendships mean a damn thing to either of you.
[ QUOTE ] isn;t the Woodward Dream Cruise the next weekend? If so, there will be TONS of people around! [/ QUOTE ] 6 million, but a lot of HAMBers (A.K.A. people I WANT to see) will be down at the Drags or just plain getting out of town because of the circus. Who is going to be in Detroit the WDC weekend?
The sales manager at the dealership always wants me to take new cars to shows when I go he just asked if I would take the SRT 4 neon down with me I told him after being there he wouldnt want it back
I apolgize to all the folks that will be attending the show for all the drama, I certainly don't want anyone to feel unfortable there. There will not be any drama or tension at the show coming from me.
WTF!?! Why does it have to be like this??? I have a (almost)7 yr old daughter and a 10 month old daughter, and they play together WAAAYYYY better than this! It's obvious there is some sexual tension or somethin between Randy & Denise, BUT I DON'T CARE!!! You guys are both friends of mine, and I was really looking forward to seeing BOTH of you. Do me a favor and just try to grow up a little, ok guys??? I'll see BOTH of you sunday.
How about some directions and the times for those of us who don't know where it is ..I would be comming in from Port-huron...should I bring a baseball bat and helmit..or is it safe...and is there lots of parking or.....will anybody with a car get in...shit I have paint on my car and chrome wheels..does that exclude me?? fatchuk the canuck from St.marys Ont...
