Hi. I've been a gearhead since I was a kid but all my cars thus far have been British or European. However, I've recently developed a hankering for something like a 33 Ford salt flats racer. Something with that look, anyway. I want to put something together around an original body - I'm not interested in a plastic reproduction. Neither do I like chrome or billet. So I'm here to pick up a few wrinkles and learn about the options. Although I've owned and worked on a lot of cars over the years I know pretty well nothing about traditional hot rods, so please bear with me.
Thanks
Will Holman

Hi Will, welcome you'll love it here!
Are you planning on attending the Nostalgia Nationals at Long Marston next month 26th-27th, the Flathead Meltdown guys will be there and if you like trad stuff it's a great place to start.

Possibly the best known of the Bonneville coupes is the Pierson Brothers Coupe. Here's the result of a HAMB search....

Dont feel bad.I am currently driving an 05 Jetta GLI. My first car was a 1932 Brit Ford Prefect.You can't beat good old American muscle but you can still enjoy fine Euoropean enginreing.
