    first off all the money goes to help the hamb!

    up for auction----real steel fiat g***er

    been tucked away in a amarillo back yard since 1962 and now it could be a terror at the hamb drags someday.

    comes with frame and grille shell- some dings and dents here and there with rusty lower door skins but it will make a great car. looks to be A rails with a super kool slotted axle.

    the car is at owens salvage in wellington texas or i will be at the hamb drags and will be glad to bring it with me for pick up there.

    auction will run till aug 4th at 10.00 pm central time and starts at 500.00

    remember every bid helps this place and we all owe the hamb lots in freindships and good times!
