Question Have you seen this?

Doe's anyone recognize this clubs plaque?


It was formed back in the 70's in Bellflower, CA.
By Porky, Jimmy Jines, myself and others. I was wondering if
anyone here recognized this club and had any update info on them
as I've lost contact with Jimmy many years ago and moved not long after.
Thanks for any response.....greatly appreciated.

I've never seen it but through the magic of google I came up with this.
Car Club Plaque Photos? - Page 27 - THE H.A.M.B.

Go to post 540, the man that posted said "When I was a kid in the 70's this is the club my dad ran with. Out of Los Angeles area. Had alot of fun cruising around on poker runs and shows in the panel. Good memories." If you can contact him you may have a great lead.<!-- / message --><!-- attachments -->

Hey kurt,
We did a lot of "group" events back in the day that often included Pic-ups Limited. Our main charity was the School for the Blind out in Riverside each year.
Ask your Dad if he remembers a member that had a yellow BBW with a chopped top. That guy would show up at some of our meetings and always left doin a burnout (big time against the rules). Jimmy Jines and I loved to "fix" him when he'd show up. While he was inside we'd either use machinest blue die inside his door handles or, our best one, we used a floor jack and put his back end up in jack stands just enough that his wheels didn't touch. Should have been there for that one. VVVvvvvVVvoooooooMMMmmmMM and he wasn't goin anywhere. I'm sure your Dad would know who he was.

UPDATE: Brute's link produced the son of one of our members who still has his late Dad's Ye Old Truckers plaque. I joined the H.A.M.B. so I could make contact. Wow!! Was he blown away. He remembers hangin with his pops at our club runs in their 56 F100 Panel growing up. I was able to dig up some old pix and sent him one of his Dads panel parked next to my truck back in the day along with some others of some of our runs. The kid grew up to be a motorhead (no small wonder) and now has the itch to get himself a 56 F100.
Thanks BruteFord for the tip....it made a fathers son a happy man.

I did ask my dad and he just snickered and said yes. I really think he remembered and it was a good memory. Thanks for allowing him that memory.
