Art & Inspiration How many HAMB'rs does it take to change a headlight bulb?

...and a few, what do you think this old bulb is worth?

...and a few more, saying "sorry guys" or "I hate to ask" ...but whats this old bulb worth? (similar but different)

 

And this is why I like to do a search for "popcorn" every few days when I'm bored at work... always good for a laugh or two. We're also missing the irrelevant link to a thread that has kind of something to do with what's being discussed, yet nothing to do with what's being discussed. I think this one works for that....

too funny! really happy I wasn't left in the dark ....

 

When did they start putting headlights on rods .

 

Are you serious?

 

That is some funny ****!! I can Hardley type cause I am laughing so hard.

 

Is it the right headlight or the Left Headlite? Make sure that the Head Lamps are adjusted properly.

Are you sure you don't have them reversed?

Check your Battery, is it charged up to it's full 13.7 volt capacity?

Those LED lights aren't traditional.

those head lights make your *** look big

Has anyone ever put head lights on their Dagmyre bumbers?

You mispelled clame

 

Headlights rule!

At least he didn't Rat Rod

Aren't they supposed to be HeadlightZ

 

Wow... so true!

 

WOW, this thread is my pic for thread of the year! This is so true of the HAMB mentality. BUT this is why I love it so!!!!!

 

Actually the only people who benefit from this ****yzation of the HAMB posting and editorial processes are the FNG people. The rest of us already knew all of the above, but were decent enough not to ruin it for the FNG's. After all being a participant on the HAMB is a journey, not a destination.

Other than that it was a clever and amusing piece of work.

 

Ummmm.... Whats a Headlight? Hang on, let me do a search.

 

1 - replying that this thread will end in 5...4..3...2...1...

1 - replying that there was a tech article on this topic in Street Rodder Magazine a while back.

6 - to flame the guy for mentioning Street Rodder.

1 - to reply that Street Rodder has gotten better lately.

1 - to reply that they have that bulb for sale on e-gay.

 

5...1 to ask bruce lancaster a question about headlights and flatheads and their carbs...2 to see if bad bob has a photo shoot of the headlight with a chick next to it...2 people to show pictures ripped off from riksters website that,they claim they took when they worked at a custom car shop back in the day when the headlight in question first came out.

 

Did he say RAT ROD????

 

This post made my week and the week has just started.
And the comment about serious post go with out good answers is dead on.

 

I did a search,
"Sorry, 'www.centerfortheeasilyamussed.com' does not exist."

 

seems about right.......

 

I believe the industry correct terminology would be "tail lamp" sir... (Or is is Taillamp?)

On a similar note, how many lumens is your new lamp? Is it 6 volt or 12volt? Wouldn't it just be easier to keep the traditional aspect of your car and repair the filament in your ORIGINAL bulb?






Sorry about that but this was some funny ****!!!

 

flyinbrian48 ... great thread ... thanks for taking the time to post!

I'm pretty sure the latest issue of GARAGE magazine has an article on changing headlamps ... maybe JESSEJAMES will chime in?

 

1 - Noobie to ask if the headlamp was the one on the Front of the car or the one on the inside attached to the roof.

 

yeah!! but it was about light bulbs!!

 

I hope not, the popcorn thing has been around a bit longer than Darryl has been here... Just like the rest of the interent.

 

Bite your tongue Man! I was Al Gore's I.T. guy when he invented the internet!

Actually, I'v been around for quite a while longer than my current join date reflects. I was around starting about 2003. Registered and contributed a little from time to time, including Pop-Corn. My original account got [accidently] deleted about 3 years ago. [anyone else remember Ryan's big "Oh ****" moment?]

A year and a half ago, when I bought the '57 Chevy, I re-registered and joined in the fun full time.

 

Now that's funny right there.

and after all the arguing about it, the newbie usually says how this HAMB wont last long the way things run around here. . .
I wouldnt have it any other way. . .

 

Now THAT right there is funny! Thanks for the laugh

 

aint that the gospel truth!
