    ...but here are more fabulous pics and shots from Troy's shop of the coming together build.
    Remember Hambers....you could win this baby..... just fill out an entry form.
    How cool would it be for a Hamber to own this bad boy..... not just living on is good looks.... but Tons O Power to spare.....
    I know Josh(Dynamic 88) would like to thank the Hamb and Ryan for letting us see this and showcase the truck.
    Troy Ladd is a fabricating genuis,combined with Django and Dynamic 88's insight and vision.....

    Check it out.... and don't forget to enter.

    VERY nice work... That thing is going to be an absolute blast to drive when they're done! Love the Ford powerplant, too.

    I'm going to make a million dollars by coming up with a patent for boots to put over a lift's pads so that you won't damage painted areas and won't have to use rags or what not.

    Guys -- it's super easy... you can enter to win online at www.RaybestosGarage.com

    Also can check out some build videos and such there too, plus links to Flickr gallery of build progress photos, Facebook page, etc.

    And if you buy Raybestos Brakes or Ch***is parts, you can print out this form on Raybestos.com (link below), and send in for a FREE Raybestos RPU / Hollywood Hot Rods t-shirt that showcases the RPU (and Mr. Norwell's illustration!)

    Pics of the paint are deceiving... They look orange, and you don't see the flake/pearl... This close up photo gives a better idea, out in the sun:

    The more stuff we put together on this truck, the more bummed out I get. I don't think anyone at the shop wants to give this away! We all want to be selfish and keep it for ourselves! Whoever wins it is a lucky S.O.B.
