Any HAMBers in Dubai?

I was there when they cought that guy. They were fighting right beside me I got some sick pictures because I was one of the photgraphers there. Was crazy I will never forget it.

 

What no more Morrisburg?

 

I used to be in Abu Dhabi 99-06.
Did see a Custom Merc 49-50, Ford shoebox and a cuple F-100 and Chevy 49-55 pickups that was ok.

Last summer I was in Dubai and the cars that was "hot" was old Hondas to trickt out Bentlys .

The hotel that I lived in Abu Dhabi had a problem with guests that forgot cars in the parkin lot, Maseratis, BMWs, Porsches and Hummers!

 

cool cool.

 

A friend of mine mailed a car he built over there, a '48 buick ragtop

 

A rockabilly kid who moved to Dubai? Kind of reminds me of Tokyo Drift, but way cooler.

 

just saw that on tv

 

The guy that bought Lowla crashed his helicopter and died. They figure the Buick is now a planter box somewhere over there now.

 

Probably make a trip down to Morrisburg between June and September. I start school in September and before that will be spending my time between Saskatchewan and Ontario.

 

Sent you a PM about something else today!

 

You don't know the half of it. I walk into a mall and everyone stops what they are doing and look over going what the hell is this guy doing here dressed like that. Everyone wears designer stuff and I wear work boots, cuffed jeans, greased up hair, and hot rod t-shirts. I totally don't fit into this lifestyle over hear. Can't wait to be in Nor Cal.

 

Hmm to bad I couldn't find it. I have a total **** third generation Camaro. It was the oldest American car I could find. I am currently swapping in a carbed 350. Totally off topic but I needed something to do in this hell hole. I will be looking for a '49 - '54 Chevy or Model A coupe or something else bad *** when I get to Nor Cal.

 

I was just in the middle east.. I f@%ing hate it.. Good luck in school, coming back to the states should be motivation enough for you to graduate...

 

Im deployed to Al Dahfra AB in Abudabi (sp?) right now. bout to leave though.

 

I know it is boring as hell man. That's why I asked if there was any HAMBers here because maybe we could have shot the **** about different projects we have back home. I know one guy here building a '54 Bel Airon air bags and what not. I also knew a guy who didn't have anything here but had a '46 Chevy back home and we would just shoot the **** about that and my old projects and what not. Not a lot of ho rodders around though.

 

You are pretty lucky man. Been here 7 years and will be returning in June. Can't wait already thinking of my next project I will get back home.

 

Here's some interesting Abu Dhabi-UAE-Dubai news in regards to big-time drag racing in the Middle East. The Yas Marina track will have NHRA sanctioning, rules and standards.
