Chef Jim Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I love classic cars. I had a booth for my company at the Hot San Jose Nights car show a couple of months ago and we'll be at the Sonoma Mountain Art & Wine Festival and Classic Car Show in October. Find out if he's going to be at the Sonoma show and let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An article with the headline: South San Francisco man's hot rods on display at car show makes you jealous of your Brother in Law. Change around one letter and drop a few words: South San Francisco man's hot rod on display and you'd be bailing him out of jail instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also had a 1965 GT-350 gathering dust. Waaaahh! Hamam fielded a couple of cars at the Niagara dragstrip. A 289 c.i. Dragonsnake Cobra (they had a solid front axle for weight savings and weight distribution), and a blown nitro 289 Mustang that ran in what was to become the "Funny Car" class. The big name WNY speed shops back then were Gor-Den and Jan-Cen. Jan-Cen sponsored a local racer, Jimmy Oddy, who won a couple of NHRA titles with an Anglia-bodied rod in one of the old Altered classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know because his former shop was in the town of elma was right down the road. Jim had a 48 blue Austin that he ran, and won with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
