My "lil red" 1965 Ford Econoline PU arrived yesterday:)

Aw, man... yours looks too solid to start cutting (that's a whole 'nuther debate). The Bomb Hauler is more of a clean slate...



Hell yes I'm trying to hijack your thread

 

excellent, more british perversion on the HAMB, yessss...

 

yea, you know i'm not really feeling the chopped look either, it's almost like it's starting to have a 80's mini-truck look But i do dig the quad light idea! I was also thinking one big windshield wiper at the top in the middle and remove the bottom two, that might look kind cool

Is he talking about me????

 

My favorite for sure. Or that blue one with the chrome reverses on the 4th page.

 

I thought the Mystery Machine IS the Sexy California Cousin?! I'm pretty sure because how else would they have Jerry Reed, Sonny, Cher, the three stooges, etc. on their show?!

Betty Rubble......Va Va Vavooooom!!

 

No, they had passports to cross the Californian border........ I think the Mystery Macheen was the garish Cuban cousin from Miami? I mean who else would paint a VAN in such complimentary tropical colors?

Oh Cab, PLEASE don't repaint it blue........the red is REALLY sharp. And go with quad headlamps.

 

Big A... is this the look your going for, for your truck?




Brandy ...no worries, she'll stay bright red (but may metalflake the top with white and silver) and the dual headlight option looks killer as well

There's one of those little trucks sitting not too far from here. I wonder if it's for sale? Hmmmm (Your Model A is looking good!)

Big A honey, you having inadequacy issues.

Weeee now a silver and white flake top with the quads I could totally fall in love with.

Ouch. Brandy, you play nasty!

Cab, that's a little tubbed for my likin' but looking pretty cool. I think the Hauler will be a bit tamer than that (I'm sticking with the 6cyl... for now). Definitely going to be late 60's Kustom.

Lots of interest in these ol' trucks... and but they're too new for the cut-off dates for most HAMB events!

 

Thanks Pigpen,
Yea, they are great little Hauler's... you should pick it up!

My coupe is back at Gambino Kustoms getting the finishing touches on the paint and the last set of scallops put on, then it will be ready to be striped, hopefully before the Rod and Custom show in SF next month.
here's my new family portrait



best wishes and a Merry Christmas to all the Hambers all over the world!
Godbless,
CAB

 

Cab, I thought your coupe looked good at VLV last year, it is kicking some serious ass now. Great photo too.

Happy holidays bro, and to all the rest of you little HAMBers out there in HAMB land too.
