    Just me 3 years ago unloading my 1930 Indian hill climber, getting ready to warm it up for tech inspection and a run up the hill. Gary

    I consider Gene Adams to be the most ingenious engine builder and my engine guru to have ever existed. He is my hero. When I saw this twin turbo setup of his back in the 70s I decided to try and copy it. I've got as close to it as I can for a street motor. The one shown here was running on gas with 50 lbs. boost. Good for at least 1000 HP I'm sure. Bill

    Photo of an "accident" I found. dated 1957 in Arcadia ca. on old double drive (Santa Anita ave. and Longden ave.) Shoebox ford with Olds hubcaps backed up a power pole. Wet streets + kids car = great photo opportunity!

  9. I know it's a LOW thing to do but I stole it off the HAMB.
    I lifted it a few years ago from one of the Cool Pictures.
    I think Glenn originally posted it.
    Sorry.
    Please don't hate me forever. I just had to capture it.

    My buddy and I were sitting in the shop one day drinking "coffee" and my wifes 51 ford was sitting just outside the door. His fenderless 34 ford and my fendered 33 ford were sitting in the drive and were reflected in the hub cap of her car. I thought it was a good shot. Thats my story and I'm stickin to it.

    1/25 scale identical build of my '49 Ford Coupe (because I don't know how to load up photos of the 1/1 scale job) & my 'ol Telecaster coz I'm flat crazy about Fender Telecaster guitars & basses.
     
  20. If I have to explain it, I'm on the wrong forum!

    The car is 1st in a series of 10 Being built by Holley Performance. I owned the car, but sold it last year. Should have kept it and turned it into what I had in mind for it.
     
  23. mine is fairly easy to figure out its my 60 t-bird and in the back ground is my mustang and a dodge ram i sold and if you look really hard into the open garage door you might make out the firewall of my 57

    It's a pic of possibly the first use of a belly tank for a vehicle. My dad took it in England or France during WW2, and it was built by a couple guys in his unit. Powered by Indian or Harley. His unit kept the vehicles running on the "Red Ball Express", which was Patton's 3rd Army's supply line.

    Mine is pretty obvious. It is my license plate and my HAMB id. Comes in handy for remembering who I am and for finding my truck in a parking lot!

    Mine is of my son in 1986 he is riding his NAPA trike with his NAPA hat. He is the head counterman at the local NAPA store getting ready to celebrate his 10th year there. My wife blames me for brain washing him at two years old by buying him the trike and hat.
