    i knew about hamb for years...but never really got into it..because ive been into vintage vws for a long time,,been trying to get in the right direction..finally sold everything vw wise 56 kabrio etc. found a 49 woody in a vw site,,looking for trades..boom!! that's my calling. lol always wanted a woody since 84,, because of jimmy z surf wear and my name is jimmy...lame i know...its the jimmy z poster..now framed that i see it everyday since mid 80s. so of course im stoked.

    ive always been interested in cl***ic american cars for years as my father is into it..especially into indian motocycles.. went picking with him since the 70s.. many of my friends are into hamb fourms. im 45,, living in sacramento california..born deaf..folks are deaf.. and i love this ****!! if someone have bad *** car parts...funny.. all of sudden i can hear!!!

    my interests are vintage gas stuffs..toolboxes..coin ops vending machines.. cool old signs..rattan n tiki stuffs..pre war bicycles.. bobbers ,,MOONEYES N RATFINKS etc and of course american cars. doesnt matter..ford chevys etc.

    anyway nice to meet you whoever reads this

    I was heavy into VW's in the 80's and 90's, I was in a july Hot VW's vintage issue in the..rarest of rare, standing next to 15 NOS Barn Door deck lids. I had alot of early busses, 53-58, and I too like most anything vintage like many here. There are alot of great people here and enough info to keep one reading for years. Anyway, welcome to HAMB, home of vintage American iron, and abit of oher makes as well.
