    The Coupe and the story are what the H.A.M.B. are all about.

    After seeing this car, I want to change mu username to rustyA. Two words - 'future milestone'. This and Rolf's car are my favorite "A's" of the millenium.

    Keith,
    Very Good!!!!!!!:) :) :) You are a true friend to all that are lucky enough to know you. I have enjoyed the times when I get up there to "bug ya" and feel extremely happy for Ryan & Marcie in their reception of their new wheels.

    Ryan,
    I saw this car in June & we're just talking an unfinished rolling chassis with a very nice body on it that Keith chopped himself. He had many hours in the mock fab/fit stage & to see it completed just blows me away!!!!!!!!!!.

    Keith has another suprise up his sleeve so just be paitient,cuz y'all won't be disapointed.
    Kevin

    That is what the HAMB is. Great Friends who have the Hot Rod addiction!!!!!

    Ryan,
    It was great to finally meet you last weekend. thanks for giving us a place (the Jalopy Journal) to enjoy our love for traditional Hotrods and Kustoms, you deserve that awesome ride and it deserves you! Enjoy that coupe for many many years to come. It came out great and i love all the finishing touches Tardel used on your car.

    Thanks again for an awesome car show, it was perfect and i can't wait till next year.
    best wishes and God bless,
    CAB

    That hot rod is a perfect example of what the HAMB is all about. You can't get any more traditional than that. And Ryan, if anybody calls that a ratrod ...... slap um once for me:D Congrats

    More pics!! Details! Chassis!

    You can tell the car came from Keith. It has his signature look.

    I'm guessing the next time a post comes up bashing stock A tanks, you will be stepping up on how you like yours.

    That story brought tears to my eyes. Congrats, sounds like the car is just the gravy.

    Ryan you got overhauled without all the cheese. I can't wait to see it.
