    Cool Deal!

    Can't wait to see this car in action at the Jalopy Drags. Is it going to be inside at the Jalopyrama?

    **** that sweet little bantam tell us about that *****en dark blue push van in those parking lot shots in Cinci. I bet Tyler could outrun that tired looking old man in the driving suit with that sweet piece.

    Tyler,
    Your old man came over today and we set a new mag in my black duece and twisted it just a touch then BAM, lit off just like a hand grenade. Amazing what he can do with a little sleep. The honker looks awsome.....seems like about last November this was just an idea in your heads.
     
  9. awesome! Seeing the car at Mokan was great.

    You guys are true old school hot rodders burning the midnight oil and then some. Watching the video and seeing that **** eating grin on Bob's face when the car fired up was priceless. Good Job Tyler and Bob. Now get some sleep so you can hit a lot more events. We missed you at Man***as. The car would really have looked Great sitting next to Pat Bilbows rail that son Bob and Bill Klein brought to show. Not to mention they are really nice guys like you and your dad.

    That thing has got a serious snarl when he puts his foot in it. Be sure to post some vids when it does a full bore run.

    They call it Nostalgia Drag Racing.
     
  20. Bringing this back to the top...

    We were asked to take the Honker back to Detroit autorama this year.. should be a killer deal. The artists in the artists alley section have all dedicated their time and are each doing a piece specifically with the honker as their subject matter. Then each original piece will be auctioned for the charity deal upstairs. Killer!

    So i cranked out some shirt art (hand drawn!) and Printed some shirts up to sell... They are black on ivory and look killer... Ive listed them for sale in the MISC Cl***ifieds section here on the HAMB....

    Lookin forward to seeing everyone at Detroit... should be a fun time!

    Heres the back of the shirt....

    [​IMG]


    The front has the A/C cl*** designation on the left breast pocket in a sort of art deco style lettering....

    PM me if interested... thanks!

    We just left the Hotrod Barn and your old man is banging out the LW-106. Looking real good and hopefully will all mocked up this week so we can move on to the headers.

    I need one of the tees but I am a big boy (2x). How do you want me to pay? Give your dad the $$$? Let me know.

    I'll post some current pics of the LW-106 tomorrow on the Ch***is Research community.

    nice job on the tees
