After a month, deals made, deals that fell apart, mixed feelings about selling it, deciding to keep it (even as late as yesterday) the ‘34 has a new home! One chapter closed, another to begin. On to next big thing! Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I know what you are feeling, it can be tough to let a car go that has a real history with you. After 25 years of owning a 34 three window, decided to sell it and luckily went to another Hamber. Thought I would really miss the coupe, but instead discovered there was another one around the corner - there are always more cars on the horizon!
Congrats @flynbrian48, let your motivation pave the way...you certainly have many things on the project list...good luck with your adventures moving forward...
I could never do it, your a tough : (to bear unflinchingly) : ENDURE —usually used with out especially in the phrase tough it out,....................guy to let a beauty like it is out of you arms
I'd have to say that you must have a serious want to for the next one. For some it is more the thing of building the vision and when it is done there is a vision on the horizon.
I'm just not a monogamous car guy. They come. They go. Can't wait for the next adventure. Remember this. We don't own these cars. We are just their temporary caretakers. They will be here long after we are gone. Enjoy the journey.
Whats that saying "I hated to see her leave but I loved to watch her go!" Might apply here but I have a feeling the next one will probably fill the void!
An early '50s wagon, you say? Maybe this would be appealing? https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/1953-dodge-meadowbrook-2-door-wagon.1154834/ 1953 dodge meadowbrook 2 door wagon
I've looked at that a bunch of times and tried to convince myself it'd work, but the Meadowbrook, and it's Plymouth 2 door wagon cousin, are a bit too small for us. We tow a 25 foot Spartan Manor trailer, that's a pretty big tail wagging a pretty small dog...
I bought it back and sold it to a local guy building a '68 Camaro for the 4.8/4L60. He sold the complete interior and anything else that was salvageable to a guy from Utah building another '51 Pontiac wagon. He flew out, rented a U-haul van, filled it with parts and drove home from Grand Rapids MI. I kept the visor and gave it a buddy with a '50 Chevy wagon whos wife wanted a visor for theirs. The body shell was all that was left, it got s****ped. So, it's going to help 3 cars.
