I looked through your build thread. Some really great info there! :D

I have a welder friend that can lay everything out and weld it together, but we would need help with stuff like:

frame dimensions, pinion angle and neither of us have any idea about setting up the front suspension. :lol:

If I still lived in Tucson I'd just show up at your place with a tape measure and a notepad... :shock:

Welcome to the forum!! :D :D

Really sharp looking cars. 8)

Here's a link to a photo/info thread of HAMBsters. They're the two newest ones, at the bottom of the second post.

Awesome! Thanks for the link Dick! :D

Some great ideas on how to get started on one. :wink:

I went through your build thread again last night along with several others.

I love the Antique Doll too.

I just need to finalize the deal with Doug on the '61 Valiant wagon for my tow rig and I'll be set! :D

(Oh yeah,... except for building the HAMBster that is... :oops: :lol: )

Hey Mike and Dick,

Would you be okay with me starting a new thread over in Virtual Dragstrip with these links?

I know Dick already has a build thread here, but another thread with this consolidated link to other HA/GR cars (many of which are Slant 6 powered) would be cool. 8)
