The last Grasp Special '34 3 window build

Hey Chad;
Long time no see.
Yeah the 3W looks good in the brown primer. As does my 5w, which has been painted like that for around 14 years, which is hard to believe.
It's funny about Tony's new coupe. We had sought of thought it didn't need to be chopped, because of how low it sat. But when I did that photochop and Tony saw it; I think things may have changed. We will just have to wait and see on that one.
It seems like a lot of people don't come on the HAMB as much as they once did. I think Facebook and Instgram are used more. I have neither, hell I don't even have a mobile phone.
Anyhow Chad it's good to hear from you. Take care and say hi to the family.

I was talking to Tony last night and I said I would be moving the cars out of the garage today, so I could get my pickup on the hoist. I said I would take some shots of his coupe now that I have added a spacer to the right rear wheel.

Geoff aka whoday

 

Lovin this thread Tony & Geoff - keep em coming fellas...this is what hot rodding is all about !

 

Geoff, I really like the back wheel spaced out it perfect mate. Rat thanks for your thoughts about us building true hot rods the same they where done in the day.

 

Garry here Tony I think the 34 needs to be chopped.

 

Hey Garry and Gonzo. Welcome to the HAMB and our humble little long winded thread.
See the image below. Is this what you meant? Tony and I could probably pull that off!

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Whodack loving the 3/4 rear shots of the napa coupe, I can't wait to be a****st all of you again soon.

Just thinking out aloud here. MMMMMMMMMM I have some steal fenders??
Hey Tom good to see you. Not sure when we will catch up.

Geoff aka whodaky

 

The 5W when it got it's color change around 14 years ago. I never took anywhere near as many images as when I did the recent color change on the 3W. I never had Tony's help either, but I did manage to muddle through.

Whodack
Only 3 words -
"Yes to fenders"

Here you go Tony. This is another image to mess with your head and to keep Tom entertained whilst he is away with work.

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Gaza and Gonzo the pictures of the Napa coupe speak the truth, and the truth never dies, and welcome to the El Gorilla's hang out. Tommy Flathead come home soon as I miss you hanging out. Looking forward to Port Fairy 2015 spending it with good people. And Geoff fenders are the way to go, man just look at the model.

 

Tony, Gussy had some unexpected visitors on the weekend. So we rolled all the hot rods out of the garage for a photo shoot with their 'Old Purple'. We are getting almost as good at it as Robbie.

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Geoff, you are getting real good at this, these cars make me feel good looking at them. Just back from the doctor about my back pain and he said keep doing what you enjoy with these cars. As they make me happy and with help from my family and friends I hope to finish all my projects and still help others with their cars.

 

Yes, I think you'll need to grab a set of fenders for the 3 window, definitely a full hood though. Maybe after the chop on Tony's 5 window
Yes, have to admit I mainly check instagram now and don't get on the P.C much but mainly look over on the ford barn when I'm on here. A lot of time spent with our girls, mainly Phoe with her dancing and shuffling work with ongoing projects that are constantly moved around. Hope to get back into the '36 in the new year once Tracey's Fairlane is done. They all say hi, by the way. It's great to see you back in full hotrod swing.

 

Whodack and the Big T. i am really enjoying the fact both of you have changed your qickchange gear sets to high ratio and this is evident by the amount of progress to your projects and corresspondance back and forth which is just fantastic. Take it easy though fella's we dont want you spinning a bearing ok!!!

 

Chad , I hope to meet you one day, as geoff has always talked about you and your cars.Glad to see you spending time with your family. The cars will wait till you find the time to work on them, Chad sent some shots of your hot rod projects as we would like to see them . as for Tommy flathead when will you be home as I need to talk to you about the Reliability run. And we have a good Q.C. for the grasp and will be taking it easy .

 

Well Garry organised the official signs for the Fip Choose Bar and Il 'Gorilla' Hangout. They commemorate that whirlwind week when Tony got his latest '34 and we gave it a whole new look.
Tony I will bring your's down with me, when next I head that way. I will probably add a bit of striping to them.


Geoff aka whodaky

 

Geoff, they look real good , and thanks Garry for getting them made for us. I like them a lot thanks again.

 

Likewise Tony, I have drooled over many of your cars over the years, we have wanted to plan a long trip south for some time now to catch up with everyone and just haven't made it happen. I even missed Chopped the last couple of years which was supposed to be a starting point to go further south. I believe you met my Wife's cousin Paul at Geelong a few years ago. He had a green and white '56 Olds. You and Geoff are keeping the torch lit.

 

On my way home BigT, I am more enthusiastic than ever. It's been a very long time away and need to get that pick up project moving and try and try to make port fairy!

Cool signs Geoff. Thanks for including my little scribble in your picture.

sent via cl***room note. p*** it on

 

Hey Tony, I did a bit more on a couple of your wheel covers. They are coming up nice. We got a real deal on them.
Do you notice anything different about Miss Victoria?

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Chad , I remember meeting Paul ,they were good times and please say hello to him from me. When you said that you liked my cars over the years, really means a lot to me . I hope we meet soon and all get together some time. Tom you should start wrenching on that pickup and get it to Port we will have a blast, let me know if you need a hand bro. And Geoff about Miss Victoria that's what " I am talking about" she looks perfect, that shot is straight out from 1959 in Moe .

 

Yeah, looked more like this in'59!

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Hey Tony I dropped in the other day, but you weren't home!

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Or was that 55 years ago. Damn my memory is fading!!

Geoff aka whodaky

 

Geoff This makes all my dreams come true , I think it was 1955 in Port Fairy. Man that shot looks real cool.

 

I think not '55 Tony. Remember Miss Victoria is a '56. I think the shot was around '59.
I got some real cool stuff in the mail today. May send some of it your way before Xmas. Keep a spot somewhere on your walls for something poster size!
