    Gotta be tough to let it go, but I can't blame ya for hangin' on to the family car. Something thats been owned by 2 previous generations of your family should never be sold! [​IMG] With yer talent, building the next project will help ease the pain of letting this 'un go.

    BTW, thats about as perfect a description as I've ever read on eBay. Hope it sells for alot more than your reserve. [​IMG]

    If it gets sold somewhere back this way, you'll have to hand deliver it for one last road trip.

  6. Damn Sam...I understand why its gotta go, wish I could trade you something for it I have a Chevy AND a Hudson I might trade for the Roach. I LOVE that car and am proud as hell my name is on the dash I hope it stays in the HAMB family. I am really half tempted to go see about a loan!

    You're gonna kick your *** forever for selling it. [​IMG]



    But we've all done it. Sounds like you've got other projects to take your mind off it. Good luck with the sale, that little car looks like it was a blast to build and own.

    Thanks guys...
    Hey 60's Style... do you think a link to that video would hurt or help the auction.

    Would your site handle a thousand or more hits over the next week?

    Sam.

    I'm sure it would help,

    I don't know who's site that is, I just saved the link myself.

    I must've watched it a bazillion times by now, that is one tough little buggy!

    I could have sworn that I overheard you talking about the casting numbers trick when you were in AZ for the Ego Rama. I'm just glad I could keep my mouth shut about it for this long.
