    What year vehicles are typically HAMB material. I have a 65 Plymouth. Is this too new?

    Predominately, yes.

  3. Generally it would be '64 & earlier, but exceptions are sometimes made, depending on the poster & the car. If your '65 is done in a "traditional' style, like an early '60s gasser or the like, I doubt too many people are going to quibble about one year. On the other hand, if it has a billet-encrusted SBC, leather interior, & 20" wheels with Pirellis, you might want to find another board on which to post it. :)

    A poster's attitude often makes a difference, too...as it does on every board.

    Clear as mud??

    I dont know if mine is traditional,but it looks good to me and I get lots of thumbs up. Its a bone stock original but has a different set of tires and wheels.

    The only sections of the HAMB that have a set cutoff limit is the classifieds (64), in which case, your car is too new.

    The other responses are pretty much right on.

    It's really more about the posters attitude and the car. The boards focus is Traditional hot rods and customs. Your car is neither but there is a huge wagon following here as well.

    I wouldn't get too bogged down in the years unless you plan on suing the classifieds for 65 or newer specific items.

    neat car I've alway liked wagons
    but your car is in that gray area as far as fitting this board

    on one hand this would be a perfect car for towing a late fifties/early sixties styled hot rod to the drags, but on it's own it is neither a traditional rod or a custom

    if want to show yours on the main forum,
    search for the wagon threads already going
    key word longroof, wagon etc.
    and post it there
