34: Welcome to the Hamb. Great looking body, great car to build. We'll be following along. I'm wanting to build one of those next. Can hardly wait to see what you do next. Where you from? Tim
Hey this is Jim Ford from Fosses I recognized your chopped dump truck in your avatar. I am 55willys here on the HAMB.
I'm the third owner. It's been hanging in the rafters of a warehouse since 1973. I'm going to build a period correct 50's Bonneville car.
Score.......Great find!!! Thanks for sharing with the H.A.M.B. Your car, your vision, your time and efforts. Will be following your progress.
I absolutely love this body style. Looking forward to seeing what you end up doing with this project. What doors are those? They don't look like original doors lol
Nice 3 window I just picked one up a few weeks ago that was an old dirt track car it's beat up but it's s 3 window.
A " period correct" bonneville car would be a roach , those cars were gutted racecars little more than a frame A belly pan and some body pannels
I'm glad youre not gutting it. I've always wanted to build a lakes car out of a 34 like what Verne Hammond did. Just not as extreme of a chop
OK. Guys I'm not hacking anything out of anything. No chopping, No Channeling, No Filling in top. Nothing will change on this body. Believe me I paid plenty for this thing why would I start hacking stuff up? I like the look of a car without finders. I like 50's builds. No it will not be a 90's street rod looking car. No it will not be a race car. Thank you all for looking and all the nice comments.
