"Posies" Open House............

.............cold?, naw. When I was leaving Hummelstown, I saw a sign that read 11*. No idea what it was on the way in. I took a few photos. I didn't make it to Terry's shop. My wife decided she wasn't enjoying herself.......

Here is a shot of a new guy I met, Dustin. Nice guy, cool car. He's "traditional." I've invited him here. Please don't tell him I'm such a *****........

Ok, just wondering ANy more pics?


Wish i went... seemed like fun... Little to far and the chevy has oil problems..

 

.........of course, Clark power parked the "Special" right outside the front door. I was standing out there and looked up and saw Ken "Posie" Fenical taking photos of Clark & Dustin's cars. He went back inside and was asking all around for "the owner of #13." I directed him to Clark and he unloaded questions on him. He then took Clark in and showed him HIS project. Pretty cool. Generation gap? "Traditional" vs. Billit? Nope, just two guys that love cars.........

 

........That's "Spike" hotrodphotos Kilmer showing his best side (actually, representing the Pack Rats) Here's a few of the guys we could gather for the group HAMB shot. Watch for an article by "Spike" in a future issue of CKD...

 

.......here's a shot inside the display/parts area.......

......here's one of one of the shop areas......

Hard to get a good shot........

There were a couple finished and a half dozen "projects" inside and a couple nice vehicles parked outside and a constant changing of very cool "visitor" cars all over the neighborhood. Parking was at a premium (except for Clark) in the area, but everywhere you looked, there were neat vehicles. NOTE: Most of the "Street Rodders" were driving late models!!!!!! (...so I didn't feel so bad. Hell, I'm old & fat)

 

Today was fun.It was great hanging out with everyone!A big thanks to 46 mopar for letting me bum a ride.That car is awesome!

 

Good Times! Great to hang again. Thanks for the beer!
Went well with the donuts. 46Mopar PM me about bowling!

My new heater worked get that made my trip alitte bit more fun no snow suit needed. lulabelle thanks for riding along.This was the first time at posies and terrys both places where cool and it's always good meeting new HAMBERS.
I even got some info on a mopar wagon for sale just got to sell my late model truck. onelow48 the bowling thing is going to happen I just need time to get it together.

 

46mopar, Dude your car is sweet. I'm really diggin' it! That has the perfect stance. Mad nasty rake=perfect. I hope someone got a pic of the nice smokey burn-out from when you left the diner. That was clutch! Oh, wait a minute...Spike had the camera. And Spike is gay. Doubt he took a pic of something that cool. Probably depressed that there wasn't anymore man *** to check out.
I had a good time today. Thanks to all for including me. I felt welcome...I felt fuzzy...I feel gay? ****...now Spike will be following me around...
And that group picture looks like some good material for the next issue of Rod-n-Keister
Dustin seems like a nice fella, although he must be half nuts for driving that turtle deck in the single digit weather! ...that is a compliment BTW.
And I felt like a puss for not bringing the ford after seeing those yahoo's riding around without any roofs. mmmmmm, I **** and my head is the shape of a bowling ball...
and Jeff's truck is way *****in'

 

Had a great time checkin out the shops. We even went to one of Posies employees personal shop.
Posie is building the stretched 29 pick up that was in Rod and Custom a while back. Ithink a couple of Hambers are doing the same. Here is Posies.

NitroFC put a full size shot of the Model A at Terry's. It may not be to my or most Hamber's taste but the thing looked like pure art in bare metal. The lines on this thing are just gorgous. Here's a detail shot of the cowl area.

Teryy had cool **** sitting everywhere.

 

hehehe....

 

As usual I had a great time seeing everyone again. Posies was a tad less crowded than last year. Maybe it was the weather..? Did see alot of guys (and gals..) that I usually don't see until Spring (No pun intended towards Posies Super Slides..). Sold a Box-O-Mags and had to beat down a few that thought they were free hand outs.. . Got a chance to chat with Edmurder for the trip there and back. Other than that I had a good time!

The Sedan/PU that Posie is building was the highlight of the shop. It will feature many things that aren't traditional in a traditional manner. That make sense? Its gonna run a Rousche (?) injected small block and has a tube frame, but has a steel body thats chopped 5 3/4" and channeled severely. I'm not afraid to admit that I liked it. For the record, Posie likes the basic stuff too.

Terry's was just down the street and had a great lunch all laid out for everyone. I think it was Sumo that brought doughnuts as a symbolic gesture from Posies shop. The Rocket powered rod he had there last year was still out at paint (Terry only does fab work. No body. No paint here.) Taking center stage were two very cool cars. Both channeled Both featuring great Hot Rod touches. Can't wait until they're completed. It was all the usual suspects in attendence. Bruce Larson was one of them. I see that guy everywhere. He must think I'm stalking him.

I'll write more later, right now I'm off to the garage.

more hidden treasure @ Terry's

 

Hey clark.. this one?

 

Looks like fun... I know it had to be cold even for those closed cars without heaters... It was in the low 20's here yesterday morning when I took the wagon for a 400 mile drive to meet Tudor in Augusta GA for lunch.. Thou only one of us had his hot rod.. something about not having enough room in his tudor to fit the extra ****** I bought from him..

You guys are hard core.........

 

Rat Rodder.... That be the one.
Clark

 

Whew, I finally got a chance to sit down and take a look at the pics. My buddy and I had a great time. I wish I had the chance to meet everybody from the Hamb that was there. I met some new people and got to hang out with a great bunch a hoodlums . 46mopar and lulabelle, thanks for letting us follow ya's down. I'd like a ride in that Dodge sometime, wicked that car is. I'll have to soon get on the ball and get my ride done once I get everything straightened out with this house buying. Then I'll have to set up shop. It was great seeing you guy's again. I hope everyone had a safe trip home. later plmczy

 

Looks like a GREAT time was had by all. You guys that drove *******, heatless hot rods have some big, huge, br*** ones, that's for sure. I know it was as cold there as it was here yesterday. I'm getting chills now just thinking about it.

Thanks for sharing the photos.
