Calling all Metal-men - HAMB Chop '06 - So. Cal.

Yes, thanks Denise for the cookies, they went fast.

Thats cool Bob, people always callin me Dennis, perks of the last name, and I try to live up to it.

Tetnus, I did get to cut one of the bezels off, but started to mock the ring in and goofed on a bracket, and decided to call it a night.

Another good trip out, see ya'll at Mooneyes.

 

The banner will be flying at Mooneyes,over by the Village Idiots. Stop by and say hi and sign it.

 

Told me he was puttin the plate on the bumper......

 

Yes. It was a great time and sorry i didn't post more pics and say how good it was meeting and talking with all you yesterday but i was beat up tired. I really had fun and getting to know all you guys was well worth it all. Sorry Norm for not posting the great shots i got (and i did get great shots from begining to almost the very end) but i want to send them to Jerry first to see which ones he wants for Rolls & Pleats. I hope you understand, Hey knux, who is Short "bus"? I hope all you guys get to make it to Moon and to all the didn't make it to Norms, I hope you guys can make it to Moon and stop by the HAMB banner and say hi. Again, Thanks for utmost hospitality Norm.

P.S. Bob, Thanks for the self portrait drawing....."where's the Mickey's?"

 

Did I mention you as Shortbus? That is another HAMB'r that is on here. Rick Amado. Great photograper and you see alot of it in car mags. Sorry about the mix-up "SHORTDOG"!!!!!!!!!! Go back and look. I did a little adjustment. KNUX!

 

For you all you do.........this Burb's for you!

 

Holy shit!!!!!!!!! You actually caught me doing something. Now that is a rarity. I never do anything!!!!!!!!!!! I look like a skilled toolsman in that pic. KNUX!

 

You never do anything? Then what the hell are you doing here?

 

Finally! I was waiting all day to see what it looked like. Hated leaving a 9pm last night without finishing. I really like the chop. Has a really cool slope to it. Like you mentioned Norm "Merc Like". The transition into the trunk looks incredible.

Going out of town for Thanksgiving, but returning Sat. I'll see if I can get a hall pass to come help. Although I have advanced to Level 18 I willing to return to Level 3 (Cutting, Grinding, and paint removal) to help complete the car.

After HAMB CHOP 06 I feel like I am addicted to Metal Work. Look out Rebel here I come!

 

That one is called,"I look like a dipshit, don't I?"

 

Clint. Is the "Rebel" chopped? Maybe we can do a HAMB Chop 2007 and 1/5th? KNUX!

 

Here are some shots i took that won't make the mag but will definitely make the HAMB..... Check them out!

 

got home a couple hours ago.......what a great time meeting all and lending a hand where ever needed...

 

Good to see NorCal and SoCal joining together on this. It was kool meeting ya and having ya there. KNUX!

 

What? No more pics of that jackass in the WCC hat?

 

You mean this asshole? You know, you have a picnic and not only the ants but a few rats show up too.....

 

chop looks good guys!

 

would that be Robert ShortDog?

 

Cause of walking around talking, and other tech diff. i only got 6 pics in. Oh well , here they are.

 

Do you know of any other?.......I didn't think so.
What's Happening Rene? post some pics of that bad ass Nomad!

 

laid55, nice nomad, i've seen that thing wandering around the streets of whittier and pico for quite a while now.

The new photo's off the back window look awsome the whole car look's great, good job to all those who got there hand's on the baby. I like to say THANK'S to Joe for cooking that asada man that was some good eatting there hat's off to you bro. And to Shortdog hey robert it was great meeting you mano got to do it again man. And to the rest of my brother's thank's for the good time it was bitchin see all you all at the mooneyes show....

 

AKA the Rebel is chop complete. See prior thread for full Rebel details. I'm not promising a Mooneyes debut.

 

Mooneyes cannot be without the "Rebel". Clint, the word is out and that is the main attraction that all will be there wanting to see.

 

I cannot confirm or deny the Rebel's appearence... Wanted to have it ready for HAMB Chop, but didn't happen.

 

thanks for the compliment.unfortunately ,wherever it wanders,I always seem to get in trouble!!

 

So give me a shot of that thing with it's new shoes on!

 

laid55, how did you get the stance on your 55? i've got a '55 4dr, i used to drive around and it'll be back on the road again soon, and mines lowered but i like your stance, whats your secret??

 

Norm. you have got to be the best host ever... well thought out man.

Chuck. You are the man! (check out those sail panels... all Chuck right there boys) Hope we didn't wear you out too bad!

Clint was a whirliwind of activity... it was rad.

Bud... how'd the run go?!?!?!?!!!!!!

There were so many hands in there, it was awesome... I actually had time to take a little break here and there and visit!

Thanks everyone.. I had a blast.
