My car has been around for a while time as a Hot Rod, drag car, street rod and tow vehicle. It's been wrecked pretty bad, that's when I got it. Craig Warner had just put a new narrowed rear steer subframe on it for Charles Adams. That's who I bought it from with no front sheetmetal at the end of June 10 years ago. I drove it balls to the wall to Louisville for NSRA's 25th 30 days later. I added Motor and trans and mounts, front wiring harness, all the front clip from a parts car I had to find too and repainted it pink and black primer. It has been finished the way I drive it now for 5 years. It is a daily driver. Drove it to Louisville 4 times, Indy once, BGHRR twice, Nats South twice, Lonestar Roundup once + atleast 25 concerts all over the south. I know I have drove it 50,000 miles in 5 years.
This car loves to be on the road.
K9racer (Bobby) has been the other owner of the 46 for the longest time. He drove it to SC,and Daytona and Pensacola on many occasions towing his round track car or Harley.
Here's some pics.Bobby thanks again for the Pictures. Mike http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v325/dragfrog23/mikes_coupe_010.jpg http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v325/dragfrog23/mikes_coupe_003.jpg http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v325/dragfrog23/mikes_coupe_005.jpg

Geeeeze! When I sold my 36 5 window 4 years ago, the dude shows up with a trailer pulled by a tricked out flathead powered, red 40 Ford pickup. What a way to see your toy go down the road.

Mike thanks for posting. That car was a lot of fun I guess I put close to 100 thousand miles on it. The photo at Daytona was the 3rd year on the road before I reworked with a Camero rear stear front and 9 inch rear.The burn out photo I had a old round track 355 chevy out of my limited sportsman car changed the cam to a 30 30 early corvette grind{millings c10p} and added a street intake and larger 4 bbl carb. I carried it to the 1/8 drag strip and ran 8,4 all night this was with a 3.50 rear gear and a 350 transand street tires.That car hooked hard and went straight. I still have the white 34 ford sedan with a Flathead. I had great fun at car shows telling everyone I had a trailered car and watch the looks I got when they saw what I had.Oh yea that white plant is cotton.
