Technical HAMB-appropriate parts that aren't popular nowadays

Aaaa hell, wire wheels gotta stay if YOU like them and its YOUR hot rod. Most who don't want them are to lazy to keep them bright and shinny, to hard to keep clean. (at least that's been told to me by those who don't want them.) Oddly enough I haven't found that to be the case at all, no more than any highly
chromed mags I've ever run.

 

Foxtail is the item you use to sweep into the dust pan. Ron

 

Gee Mitch, I got 3 outta 4 on your hit list with my old Panel...woulda been 4 outta 4 but couldn't figure out how to get Moon discs AND wire wheels at the same time...I'll try harder next time.

Just bustin' on ya buddy...admittedly, it WAS a little "over the top"

 

Must be why mine is still so nice, it's only 54 years old!

 

How about STP stickers ? I think I saw one @just Gary’s sedan
Is that possible ???

 

How many people poured that goop into their engines?

 

Big hair on chicks is still in, right?

 

Yeah.............in Romania.
Oh, wait, I think I misunderstood..............

 

Still do I like to add a pinch of sawdust too. It really helps to keep the "knockin" to a minimum

 

I don't know. It looks like those heels would do a real number on your carpet

 

AAAAGGGHHHHHHH. There's rust on the reversed chromies

 

No matter the build style... rule of thumb.
Avoid over accessorizing.

 

Looks like that car has some kind rash or something
What is that crap anyway?

 

Only if you got both of them on the same night

Here's my Coon Tool Toothpick. (that's what my Grandma made my Grandpa call it) He was a surveyor for the county and wore it around his neck for years. I inherited it when he died in '74. They ain't worth a crap unless you sharpen them to a point. Unless you got a lot of teeth missin'. The other one I found along the road. The buzzards cleaned it off for me.


To keep on topic:

I don't have one any more but what about the lighted hood ornaments. They were popular at one time.

But those parts did not stay on it for very long.

 

SO what's the deal there Marty, are you showing him your 'training aid' in this picture?

 

Don't forget the rear window blinds, and the Green Yellow Red miniature rear window stoplights.
One of my uncles drove a Nash with those. As a pre grade school kid, I thought those were cool.
Later when one of our grade school teachers drove a 56 Buick with continental kit, chrome tip pipes, skirts, headlight visors, feelers, etc etc etc, I used to say that he bought the whole "J C Whitney trim kit".
Even an impressionable kid could know when someone would overdo it.
It's not hard to look silly instead of cool if you're not careful.
P.S. I still like full moon disc wheels, windshield visor if the car is right,
....and right now, I have mooneyes stickers on my Stude truck and Ford pickup, and a Civil Defense sticker on my Stude bumper for old times sake.

My pet raccoon was named Sammy.. no for real.
And when I was around 5 years old I had a pet skunk named Frenchie ...I called him peepee..apparently nobody played with me yet....then I had a pet b.....I just realized that ....I can't think of any time growing up not having a pet....but in high school ya I had lots friends, cool and fast cars ..my friends didn't have cars yet so I drove them ever place, had a job also so when I would be driving around with my friends we would go to the cool hang out places and I would buy every one........dinner..milkshakkkkeee..what the fu;:"": ...SONOFABITCH.. .I.was buying my f`::`n friends?

8 track players.

 

Remember these on all my family’s cars.

 

Does she drink it straight or on the rocks Jack?

 

GOOD one!!

 

The fumes alone are enough to get her dazed...that's my window of opportunity

 

My 48 Plymouth hood ornament like all 46 - 48 Plymouths is factory lighted as I am sure were many other makes over the years. This is mine.

 

I have an 8 track player and a plastic dashboard Jesus in my current daily driver.

 

on top or bottom?

 

How about blue dot taillights.

 

Speaking of stuff on the dash what about dancing hula girls.
