    I picked up this bag at an antique store this past February. I figured it'd be cool in the back of one of the hot rods with some sort of gear in it. I don't know, it was an impulse buy really. There was a br*** name tag already on it with some person's name, presumably a doctor... and that didn't scream out, "Hot Rod" to me.

    I thought it'd be cool to put an HAMB Alliance tag on it like the ones I bought for the T Roadster and A coupe but I put it off and when I finally got around to it, I looked in the HAMB store and there were none left. I bothered Ryan about it and he said he'd look into finding a blemished one, time p***ed and I'm sure we both forgot about it.

    However, Ryan being the gent he is, he found a decent one to throw my way and this is the result. The bag now has an instant cool factor to it and, for now, there's no other like it.

    I added a HAMB keychain to it that I had sitting on the shelf and snapped a couple photos.

    Thanks Ryan... even though it's just an old bag with a tag on it, it made my day seeing that envelope in the mail today.

    Cool man! Fill it full of different shift knobs and throw it in your trunk. That way you can swap them out every now and again.

    Thanks, fellas. I'm into weird stuff like this, I don't know why. I completely get into making things my own.
