Folks Of Interest Gambino Kustoms reputation is good

Met Mr and Mrs Gambino about 4 years ago in the Suede room at the Sacramento Autorama, gave my daughter and I bottled water and I bought some magazines off of him. Last December without knowing me just from some PM's here on the HAMB we were going to caravan down to the Mastersons Barris Fire show. When I got to his house he was out getting coffee so I sat there with his wife and granddaughter and their great pitbulls(complete stranger to them and its 7:30 in the morning) and just talked until he got there. They are the most down to earth people and you can tell they are very family oriented and welcomed me into their home. I ended up blowing my engine up 200 miles down the road and he continued on with Dave(Studhud) and they both kept in contact with me until I made it home safely. When I can afford it my 55 will have the Gambino touch, thoughts and prayers for Alex and all of the Gambinos.

 

I wish Mr. Gambino the best of luck with his health ! Positive thoughts and please take care of yourself .

 

don't know the man but sure seems like a guy i'd like to know !!!!!!!! god bless italiano

 

Sorry to hear you're dealing with that , Alex. Hope everything goes well-

And you're going to have to convince me about Kirk...

 

Alex is a top notch person to work with ! His crew of people are all badass also. Glad I am having them work on the Zephyr Build its gonna be sweeeeet

 

No bullshit with ALEX he gets it done.

 

I walked around the KKOA show on Fri. A couple of times , my wife said "what are you looking for" my response was I have to have a Gambinoes shirt and yes I found one. Good luck and get well soon .

 

I would like to purchase a shirt to do my part. What is the website?

Thanks,

Brian

 

Alex, ............hang in there ! I've been cancer-free for 8 years now, and I think a great deal of that is due to attitude. You've got Attitude Dude, kick some ass !!!

Met you in the Hallway of the motel at the Salina show.
Later,

Alex is the best. A true rare breed, and a great ambassador to hot rods!

 

I was going to post this in the Watson thread but couldn't find it. I happen to catch you guys and it seemed like you might have just met. Anyway hope you like it.

 

You are in my prayers, BEAT cancer!

Both my parents have had to deal with serious cancer in the last year, It CAN be beaten.

Get the best medicine has to offer and KNOW that God can heal.

Message boards are a funny thing, it is uncanny how a person can read a few post from another and KNOW you like this guy, Mr. Gambino, you are one of these folks, I am pulling for you all the way, don't give up and don't give in.

First met Alex at the Lone Star Round-Up and signed his HAMB banner. Bumped into him again at the Hunnert Car Pile-Up. Visited him the night before the last Paso show at his shop where he was a gracious host. He is an innovator and an inspiration - they don't come any better!

Alex, my wife Glo is a cancer survivor. Please follow the docs' orders and get well. You're in our thoughts and prayers and I eagerly look forward to the next time our paths cross.

Super cool guy, He'll go out of his way to shake your hand and say Hi, saw him yesterday in Santa Cruz at the Concrete Massacre show...Hey Alex did you make it down to the Boardwalk ?

 

Al,
You are truely one of the "good guys", You are an inspiration and I am very proud to call you a friend.

Keep kickin' ass!

 

Several months ago, I was in the bay area and called Alex and asked if I could stop by and check out his shop. His answer was yes, stop by. We did one morning. He is one of the nicest guys that you could ever meet.

 

Hang tuff alex we just got back this morning from the 24 hour walk for the american cancer society do a search on the internet they maybe abel to assist you

 

I watched him working his ass off in the KS heat, passing sketchy tools back and forth etc.., stepping and fetching when needed, etc...

What would any of us do to have half his talent and a quarter his work ethic?

Take care man, we really need you around

 

I don't know who Alex is or his shop, but it's cool to see all you guys showing love, and showing his shop love.... Get Well!!...

 

Can't say enough good things about Alex or his shop. I ordered my frame notch's last week and they were at my doorstep in 3 days! Great customer service and tremendous quality. It's guys like Alex that are the true heroes in our world, he deserves all the recognition and then some!

Thoughts and prayers are with you Alex, now go kick cancers ass!
