Thump


Thumprr has been a member of the Combs family since September of '86. He was given as a birthday present. He has went thru different transitions. From daily driver to second vechile in '95. As a second vehicle it has been neglected for different reasons(money&location to do it right) at different times. For the last year he has been snug as a bug in my downstairs garage. Put unfortanately,prior to that,he was stored outside under a car cover be exposed to the elements. As a result he is in need of a frame off restoration to return Thump to his musclecar glory.
Thump came to me as a plain jane Chevelle Malibu sports coupe. White w/black vinyl top. 350cid,350TH. Black interior,bench seat. Nothing spectator. Just a good starting point. You can add all the other goodies with time and money.

Hammrr and Thump

I'm going to use "Hammrr and Thump"to document the progress of the restoration of the Malibu. It has been a slow progress, but there are other projects(my old house) taking my time and money. The house should be on the market next week. Thump is temporarily on hold.
