UK HAMBers make yourselves known!

up the arsenal!! (the americans wont misconstrue that phrase will they )

 

you wont see me down south, not that into the UK hot rod scene .. its a bit borin like .. lots of nice cars and such, plenty great people, but a weekend in a damp field after a 600mile drive, most of it on the M6 in a tailback aint my idea of fun..neither is the £400 fuel bill.. The future for me is up here in the frozen north or a decent week away to Sweden

1st pic is the mates 35s at my stable, 2nd pic is my dead horse soon to be flogged back into life.

 

i cant decide between rod and ksutom, so i had to have both
ive been collecting parts for the wagon for the past year, thatll be late 60s style custom when its back out- 2 tone orange and tangerine, RHD impala dash, black steels, whitebands, bellflowers, chevy axle, mazda b2000 front clip and rover v8 with auto. sitting in an all new chassis. itll do as the daily/parts lugger

 

I'm an ex-brit....used to live in London...

Now in California.

Almost made the Nats last summer...then didn't, but get lots og UK visitors here for Bakersfield & Paso usually!

 

I've been lurking on the HAMB for ages but never posted - I'm here in rainy England.
Looking forward to a little SoCal sun though - coming over for GNRS very soon, can't wait!

Hoo HOo don't think I won't let him know. LOL. He called my jensen healy a pommie car.

 

Everybody catches shit I guess. When I traveled abroad I wondered why the canadian backpackers always had there flag on their pack. My wife told me they didn't want to be mistaken for americans. Back on topic sorry.

 

and all Aussies are from Queensland - because it's all the Queens' Land.

 

I'm here too. Sorry I'm late, been a bit busy.

 

Yep they will but who cares Been confusing em for years!! My responce is.. You've had monty python for 40 years and you still dont understand it so I guess they will always be confused by Brit humor.
