barn find "little monster" (new york guy's help) Pic's update

I made his daughters an offer on it last week. I probably helped you get it!!! I have too many projects and I really didn't have time to work on it. I'm just glad a HAMBER got this one, I'd hate to have seen it go to someone that didn't know what it was.

 

Wow what a total score! That thing is so real, don't get any better then that!
So how'd ya find it? Tell ua more!

-Shiny

 

bitchin ! a new paint job would sure clean it up

 

Absolutely one the best scores I have seen on the HAMB! CONGRATS!

 

Holy shit that's cool.

 

That is quite a find. I did notice that the brake arrangement must be interesting. The pedal seems to be in the normal spot but the master cylinder is close to the center of the firewall. How does that work?

 

I tried to sit in the car. I'm 6 foot tall and it wasnt happening! neat car, But almost chopped too much and channeled too much. I couldnt drive it the way it was, But that motor is cool as hell.

 

very cool! nice find!

i find like that only come once a life time

We will all keep dreaming.

 

7 1/4'' on the chop but it's a drag car... he said in articles that it was a street car
mother said it was never driven on street here in calif. but was raced at lions.

 

Very cool find! Good luck & keep us posted!

Does the motor turn over or is it stuck? Would be cool to hear that fire up

 

Congrats, I have past this car on my way to work for 4+ years. When the guy was alive he would have shot you if you walked within 20 yards of it. I'm glad fate put it in the right hands.

 

We hate you! Sweet find though! All that history, a genuine time capsule!

 

What a great find! That coupe is so stout looking!!! This thread just made my saturday morning. Good stuff!

 

Lucky bastard

 

What a find!!! DAMN...

 

Very cool. I am with some of the others, i would get it running and safe and drive the hell out of it. Cars are only original once, you cant unrestore it.

 

Find of the year. Congrats. Can't wait to see how this one progresses.

 

WOW, this is the kind of deal where "I know a guy that knows a guy who's brother knows a a guy that found a great car in an old barn" story, the fact that this time it is real give hope for more great finds out there!!! I agree it's only original once, even restored it still wouldn't be original as the builder did it, you do what you want though it's your dream now, congrats. very very cool

 

DAMN MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now that is just right

 

Perfect stance. Really, really nice car.

I remember my father taking me out to Westhampton drag strip back in the day.

 

Awesome that its once again in the hands of someone that appreciates it.

I reserve the right to retract this statement at any time if I see it on Ebay.

 

Now that's the "Real Deal" right there. Awesome find!

 

what an awesome find , and all the cool paper work an historical stuff awesome ,

 

So is it running yet?

 

The stuff dreams are made of - those are the little monsters we all want to find hidden in our closets. Awesome stuff, hopefully to be enjoyed once again (as intended)

 

Too Cool!!

 

Nice!

If you want to send it back to the "Right " coast where it belongs,,, I can help you with that

 

I will be emailing my sisterinlaw in arazona these pics and tell her to look around the trailerpark ....
AND TO ASK EVERYBODY BODY IF THEY HAVE SEEN SOMETHING LIKE IT ...

HATING YOU MORE....
