I am the owner of a 66 Ford Galaxie, I have been told of the HAMB for a few years and have just now decided to check it out for myself, looks like I should have scoped it out a long time ago. I hope to find some answers to air ride questions for my car. No one seems to make a specific kit for my year.
Where in St Joe are you??? Myself and a couple of buddys used to have that shop on Charles street where all the black cars hung out. If you are NWMSRs, we know some of teh same folks. Do you do the show at Ground Round?? Welcome to the HAMB, -Abone.
Where on Charles? I do the cruise nights at Ground Round, the owners are in our club. Who do ya know? I live out by Heartland Hospital....
Just that little short piece of Charles street off the Belt behind the hair cuttin place. Just up the road from Autozone...Around the corner from teh Belt Bowl. (Tucks, Legends, or whatever..) Most of the NWMSR guys I know by sight, not names anymore..it has been 7 years since i lived there... Gaylen Arnold is about the only one who will recognize me...But, I'm up every year for the HAMB Drags, you can buy me a beer. Nice Galaxie, by the way. -Abone.
Isn't there a shop there now? Can't remember.....Galen is a good ol' boy, he's working on a 39 or 40 Cady now, I'm sure it'll be flat black and low...I'm gona' to try and make the next HAMB drags. Won't be racin' but always like to see other guys tear up their stuff....Helping Bob Langer put together a straight axle 55 g***er now. Custom tube frame, full cage, 468 bbc with two 4's, ford 9 inch with 456's
can't say that I have ever been to Eagleville, guess I'll have to run up that way this spring......if it ever gets here!!!!
The front end under my Model A came from Bob Langner many years ago.( Bob Sr, not Jr. ) Suprised that g***er he is building doesn't have a Pontiac in it... I'll be at teh Drags for sure..you can buy me a cold beer. See ya, -Abone.
