How did you earn your HAMB name?????????

Ex-Postal Worker.

 

Driving race car #27 for 19 years.

 

My name is Joey...pretty much sums it up.

 

Got the name Big Nick from the group of loony Harley riders I rode with in Chicago in he 80's. 1959 is the year of my birth. Back then I guess I was "Big Nick", 6'5", 260 pounds, 36 in. waist, 18" arms. Now at the age of 48 I've been thinking of changing it to.... out of shape,fat and old Nick1959 but that would take to much energy and I'm tired......I'm going to go lay down!.

 

Creepy Jackalope Eye is my favorite song.

 

old high school nickname - boring- but at least i did'nt have to think something up jim hively, him jively
high school kids are sooo clever

 

Combination of things:

1. Mustangs are what they call officers who came up thru the enlisted ranks.
2. Six is the designation for a commander (company, battalion, etc.)
3. I started FordSix.com because I owned a six cylinder Mustang.

so it sort of made sense.......

 

I'm Abonecoupe31 because my first model A was just that, a 30-31 style Model A coupe that I built from two junk bodies, an early 30 and a early 31. I ran a 31 grille shell so I called it a 31. I used to have the Michigan Vanity plate, A Bone, on two different occaisions, I let it go twice, and the third time I tried to get it I found that it's owned by a guy on the est side of the state, registered to a 30 Ford. So it's still in the family. I always have a kind word for another Model A owner.

My friend's call me A-Bone too. I've never been without a Model A since my late teens (I turned 54 yesterday) 30 years ago my Model A coupe was my daily driver for 2 years--until I had a rod go thru the side of the block.

I doubt if I'll ever have a hot rod that isn't based on Model A parts.

 

Its the neighborhood I grew up in.

 

my scoot is an FLH4speed , well it used to be a 4 speed!

 

At this one body shop I worked at, I was the one that got all the custom work to do. One time this guy from Boston that just moved down here wanted a slant nose , boxy fender flare, fiberglass kit for a 914 Porsche, the kind that stays on about 2 weeks then the fiberglass starts seperating from the metal etc. etc. Well, that guy would come in every other day to see the progress, and soon as he found out my name he started calling me custom cory with the thick Boston accent. It didn't take long for it to stick as everybody did their best to sound like him saying it. We get a kick out of the Boston accent! Didn't like it at first, but a lot of people call me that still, so I learned to live with it.

 

Because the bikes and cars I build are void of luster

 

Because I race.

 

Always wanted to build a 5 window, '32 coupe when everybody was building 3 windows. Then, when I got my '31 Model A, turns out they're all 5 windows, (yes, I do know there are a few rare 3's out there) so I just kept the handle.

 

my wife said I do this alot during conversations. After a couple cold ones it turns into Babbleon, few more it turns to verbal scrabble.

 

Rusty Carr is my given name. And no its not Russell.

 

I have red hair and I can be pretty damn bitter....I got the award to prove it.

 

Mine, which is unofficial (I needed something at the time), came from my younger days when my buddy and I were out fucking around in my car and ran out of gas. We attempted to siphon some gas out of my dad's truck. Well, the only hose we could find turned out to be too short, and needless to say, we didn't get any gas out but ended up with one hell of a buzz.

 

I shake alot and have mild twitches. My wife shakes too. I friend of mine pionted this out. And said it was getting worse by the time you are old you'll only be a Blurr.

 

ditto.

 

You might want to start painting with a resperator.

 

ALindustrial is the name of my small time/non-existant trademark of a business name... i used it a long time ago, and it just stuck...

 

HAHAHAHA! I'll I'll I'll (twitch twitch) kkkkeep that in mind!

 

Got mine when I was riding my motorcycle and a guy meeting me decided to make a left turn into my lane.
I was doing about 70 & he was doing about 45 when we hit. Ride a trike now............
PegLeg Strick

 

my last name

 

the leters of my name mixed up.....i have been told "your evil !" and I like to think im one of a kind...

 

I'm an inline 6 guy and the first choice names were taken. My pick-ups shift knob is a 6 Ball. Nothing extra here!

 

Well, it's how I drive. Sometimes I even skip the steering part.

 

I really don't have to explain, do I?

 

Dropped the "old bastard" everybody muttered and substituted the year of my Ford coupe. vic
