Imagine trying to put all the information on the HAMB into a magazine. Impossible!
Cool!
For outright power and tuneability a mechanical secondary Holley but you need an engine with the right bits to use it. For a basically stock V8...
I was lucky enough to have a body in good condition. Boxing the frame meant the doors stayed shut. Our version of hinges and locks was very basic...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] 1929 Chevrolet. These were full wood frame bodies in Australia. This car still has the original wood in it.
I followed the restoration if the Fiat S76 on Facebook. It's specifications are amazing. I don't remember exactly but I think it makes maximum...
That's the best six and a half minutes I've had for ages. We think a Big Block in a Model A is good. These guys leave us for dead.
Every time I start a new car the old one ends up paying for it even though I hadn't planned it that way.
What about being very close to finishing but not taking the last step because it will be finished and you won't have anything more to do. I know...
What gas tank are you going to use. You will need the original frame to use the original tank.
'29 Chevrolet is 106 inch wheelbase. It will be out of proportion on an 'A' chassis.

I love this thread. I haven't seen Ron Wickham's F100 for years, which brings up the question "Where are they all now?" I know a lot of our early...
Looks like the same green house paint we get in Australia. It seems to be on all old cars here.
Helps if you read the instructions a few times. They are self explanatory. I hooked up my C4 a few weeks ago and while it is not as simple as a...
Is your shifter new or second hand. If new in the box everything you need to install it is in the box.
I've used Quicksilver shifters in a few cars. If you follow the instructions exactly it will work perfectly. The most recent is on a C4. You won't...

Great story. That's what we all hope for.
I have bought a lot of parts from them. I am in Australia and they were excellent to deal with. Usually cheaper than the big guys for new stuff...
Before I joined the HAMB I thought I knew what Hotrodding was about. You guys really opened my eyes. It does make your builds better, mainly...

In 1996 I traded a '54 Cadillac Coupe DeVille on my '38 Buick. When I found the original purchase paperwork in the car I found that Captain Irving...
It's not only in the USA. I'm in Australia and I sell cars for a living so I'm used to liars and idiots. I do have enough sensible and nice...
