    I was checking and installing a new voltage regulator in a 1955 Plymouth Savoy yesterday when a photographer from the lacal paper came buy and asked if it was ok to take a few pictures. He said it might make the paper the following day. Little did I know it would make the front page. My friends say its my best side, and have called to say did you see that *** on the front page.

    I can't believe your name is Rusty Buster. Sounds like a made-up HAMB handle, and you didn't even use it that way!

    If that isn't the best advert you can't buy, I'll eat my hat!

    Fortune smiled on you Rusty.

    Folks are going to recognize you all over Colorado Springs now. Once you turn around, anyhow.
    Seriously, that's a high quality picture and congrats.

    Very Well Deserved!

    2 years ago I was in need of a custom made speedometer cable. Rusty sent me a PM on the HAMB, then we spoke on the phone. Shortly thereafter Rusty had made the cable and shipped it to me. He told me NOT to pay him until I installed the cable and was happy with it! The cable fit perfectly and works great!

    This past Winter I sent him my speedometer for a rebuild. Within 2 weeks he had rebuilt the speedo and polished the gl*** face. It looks great and I couldn't be more happy with his service. I installed the speedo and it works great.

    Rusty is a genuinely nice guy. He does awesome work at a great price. You'd be a FOOW not to use him!:D

    If not for the other car or the flamed fender cover it could've been a scene right out of the '50s.
