    A few months back there was a guy selling these parts and I can't find his original listing, does anyone know who it is or how to contact him?

    I'm glad this thread is back. I had gotten a notice it had been deleted, and I couldn't figure out why. There's a lot of valuable information in this thread.

    This is pretty interesting, the side panels on this 33 Willys coupe in Washington that's on e-bay I once owned. I bought the front end sheet metal from a guy in Maryland in about 73. My coupe body was a 34 so I offered them up for trade for a set of 34 panels and traded them some 20 years ago.

    There are already pics of the "Big Ed's Speed Shop" '33 Willys BB/GS, here on the HAMB. Here are pics of the car from the original builder Peter Zorio when he debuts the car at Englishtown in 1967. It was an injected small block with a 4 speed. Beautiful and well built car for a college student to have put together. 004.jpg 009.jpg 010.jpg

    Peter always had beautiful cars. Do you know if that is Peter Zorio or Ray Kobel who was friends with Peter.

    In the letter Peter sent with the pictures, he said that guy is Ray Kobel.

    Thanks to Peter for sharing these pics with me. I only met him once in 1968 when we went to pick up the car from him in New York. I have a couple more to post later

    That is a great looking car Hot Rod Mike, thanks for posting it.
    Here is a good action shot but I don't think that it is the same car.

    I haven't posted anything in a while. It's tough to find stuff that hasn't been posted before. I know there are photographers that have shot this stuff, but it not much of it surfaces. Hopefully the families of the photographers that shot back in the 60s won't throw that stuff away as more of these guys pass on. Maybe more of it will surface as time goes on. In the mean time, here's some stuff I've scoured off the web over the past few months. I'll post a few each day.

    A couple of pickups. One looks like it may be a conversion with a home made cab.
