    Ryan congrats on the car, Keith did a bad ass job on it . As you wrote in the JJ a few weeks ago about the coupe that was almost done (mine). Family always come first, I love my coupe also an would love to have it running. But when you run out of money like I did, it's nice to see that dreams can come true.

    Sorry I didn't say hello at the Revolution, and thank you for the wonderfulness that is the HAMB. I saw you and thought you looked familiar, but I didn't make the connection.

    The coupe is really magical. I'm sure you'll enjoy it every time you drive it.

    Would be nice if you could give us some tech spec if you got the time.

    I'm particularly courios about the frame /susp. mods, and the Number of Inches chopped.

    The more I look at it the better it gets. Just love the stance and chop.

    30/31 Coupe is a nice body. PERIOD

  6. You deserve a lifetime supply of cars like that for bringing us the H.A.M.B. Thanks Ryan! Can't wait to see that car in person, it sure looks nice in pictures!

    Ryan,
    Only one word fits: Subtle.

    Keith,
    I love the way you used flat and glossy paint to highlight things. A very artistic touch.

    Sorry about the Nikon being hurt, Ryan. Is it an old school model, an F1 or F2? Maybe you should try a "good" backup camera like an Olympus OM4?

    She's perfect, my favorite things are the pipes and the contrast between the gloss frame and flat body, very nice.

    You're a lucky guy and you know it, good for you.

    And lookit, so many pictures of you, you can't be liking this very much.

    Just because he is my Pops dont mean I have to agree with him but he freakin hit the nail on the head. It is all about family and the friends who become family and all things that result from this.

    Ryan, we are all blessed to have this outlet you created for our passions and you whole heartedly deserve the most beautiful coupe we have ever seen.

    Thanks to you for this and thanks to Mr. Tardel for the coupe.

    Congrats Ryan, that is one very nice coupe.

    Keith, very,very nice work. I wish I had that kind of vision.

    One thing that I notice in the HotRod/Kustom world, that friends and family are number one. You just don't see that anywhere else. later shawn

    WOW. Thats just amazing on all levels.
    Enjoy it.
     
  17. Passion & Family, how awesome.......this represents to me, so many of the GREAT elements of the HAMB universal.

    Leading by example, that is absolutely breathtaking, in every sense.

    Congrats to yourself, your family, Mr Tardel and friends, this is the HAMB...............ROCK ON.

    Cheers,

    Drewfus:)
