    I don't think that he is on the HAMB...
    He is like 18 years old or something.
    He has a couple of friends on here, but I do not know who they are...
    There was a thread on this car a couple of months ago that turned into a bar room brawl...
    It eventually was locked.
    Watch out.... [​IMG]

    I read some of the*****-Slinging that was on that thread.
    I was with the understanding that he was a member, possibly not.
    I'll wait and see what comes of the post.
    Thanks

    Anyone know if he sold the thing (I believe it was an Ebay ad that started the original HAMB***** storm)?
    Just wondered.

    He ended the auction early and when you do this it cancels all bids showing 0. $14,000 was to much in my opinion anyways. Cool car though

    I bought it.

    First time I pulled out into the street, it got flattened by a Nissan Armada. I couldn't see***** and the driver was a soccer mom on a cellphone. Talk about a case of "I TOLD YOU SO!"

    Nothing survived. My buddies and I threw the wreckage into a dumpster. What a waste of $14K! [​IMG]

    How funny is the name Armada for a car(or SUV)? Armada of what? Bad drivers?

    I dig the back wheels on that thing. I think the earlier comment on them being International is true. Doubled as truck and tractor wheels.

    Be cool to find out who in New Jersey bought it.

    I stayed out of the last***** slinger over this P.O.S. I can hardly hold back any longer...

    - reminder - This place is kinda like a garage where after working in the shop you talk cars, tech, likes, dislikes, etc., right?

    I hate that car.........what a hack.

    My next project will be a Model A Ford with the rear axle ABOVE the rear decklid. I will use a 38 John Deer axle with a PTU still intact- just incase I need it you know? I am also going to chop the top 2 inches shorter than his and just rivet teardrop shaped "blisters" to the roof on each side for head clearance. Other body mods are sketchy but I am thinking of NOT mounting the body to the frame at all!! I think I will just channel it over the rails until the body hits the pavement and just drag the body around on the ground by chains attached from the grill shell to the cowl. Sweet. For a real Old Skool flavor I will canabolize an old western style wagon for its wheels. I will also steal the buggy springs to hang my rear suspension. I will have to run the drive shaft through the front window, into the cabin and on out the backlight, but thats ok. I will just have to be careful that I don't get my pomp caught in it at speed. I guess this means that I am going to have to move the engine mounts up huh? I am probably going to have to mount the******* upside down so I can shift it too. I am thinkink of using real long barrel six-shooter for a shifter to keep the western theme. What do you think? [​IMG]

    that car is gay. the proprotions are*****ed up and who the hell can drive that with the chop so low. you will have chripractic bills the rest of you life from that. the rear wheels are too big and the rear end sits to low. the*****ing rear tires are taller then the roof. I cant see any sense of style in that care just chop it to*****ing low to say its*****ing choped low. its gay

    ........pleeeze........lets not turn this into another 9 pages of bashing, the car is not my thing . i jumped the kids***** cause he said it was comfortable and driveable, but i guess when i was 18 i would have been in heaven in that thing,

    i dont like***** boxes on the road but they are fun to look at ...sometimes they have intresting solutions to problems ...sometimes they are total pieces of***** that can roll on or off a trailer at events... cant tell much from pics really wanted to see it in person and talk to the guy****ociated with it ... it definatly stirs the pot ....the "TIN SHED"tm. now resides in new jersey from what i understand from the other post... hope the guy is happy.... let this post die now!

    Yea, he is on the HAMB, or was.

    Controversial car, there was a pretty huge thread about it a while back.

    Broman, you're killing me dude, stop.
    As an excecise in "outhereness" it's on the mark, as far as it being a functional car, no*****ing way. And to purport it as being such is a big fat lie.
