Where'd this chopped '40 Ford coupe come from?

[Anderson]

I think I've seen pictures of it before....but never anywhere in Texas. Never seen it in person untill yesterday...it had Colorodo Goodguys sticker on it but was running Texas plates.

It was at the Pileup last year...

If he's Texan, he might have driven up with Flt-Blk... but I didn't think they arrived together...

That car was on the cover of HotRod awhile back. It had '40 Deluxe caps instead of the moons. I saw it at a show in Garland a couple of weeks ago. It had California tags on it then. Nice car.

Check out the link. This car was chopped by my buddy Ron Walker in the 70's. Who is in the same car club as me, "The Greazy Hubcapz". It was owned by Josh Bailey and his dad, Joe. They both work for Alloway.

Yup, thats the one.

I don't remember the car from the pileup. Maybe he will
come back and I can met him this year.

I don't care what you guys think....I like it.

It's just like all the other cool hot rods!....bare metal body, suicide front end, fake quick change, and no concern about the scrub line!

[Anderson]

and while everyone is looking.....this is for you FltBlk!

Here is yet another pic of the '40 coupe. This is at a show off of Spring Valley and 75 at Skoots. Great place for a burger and ther scenery aint that bad either.

NO SHIT!

The motor is nice, granted, but everyone in the world knows what a small block looks like. I hate car shows because of this. if you want to show off the motor then just take the hood off, if you want people to see the car, then leave all the panels CLOSED.
