My old buddy Dave Huston's car. I haven't talked to him in years. He built this car after I moved away. I haven't seen it in person, but you can...
You don't ride those lowrider bicycles. Some might be rideable, but most aren't. My buddy has one that matches his 57 Chevy, he takes it to shows...
I once hauled a Ferrari on a 2 wheel trailer that wasn't even as nice as this one. I was pulling it with my lowered square body stepside.
That's great! I liked it better blue. I remember going to the Oakland Roadster show back in the 70's. It was required that a car had to have a...
Is this car still around? Such a nice car, be a shame if it isn't around any more.
How many people realize this car has no door lines?

That's gotta be a photoshop. If it's not, WOW! That's the best looking 51 Ford Victoria I've seen in awhile.

Man that Falcon has got to be a hoot with that motor in there.
DAMN, that thing is super clean!
Yes Pontiac had them. When I was right before driving age, a girl from school had one parked in the driveway, it never moved. She said it was her...
Manufacturer plate. The manufacture would have multiple plates with the same number, same as a dealer plate. Not sure on the older plates, but...
Here's some pictures I found by doing a quick google search. The wheels suck, so I won't post the pictures. Viewer beware, the Bird isn't the only...
It looks like the idler pulley is the same size as the alternator pulley in the picture above. Measure the alternator pulley and get one close to...
No pictures. My Buddy and I lost track of each other after high school. I found him on facebook a few years ago, but he was real vague about what...
I sectioned the oil pan on my Roadster, as well as the oil pickup. The oil pan was the lowest part of the car, and the rest of the car is pretty...
Yes it runs and drives. When Brizio's restored it, Bill Ganahl drove it around. You have to realize these cars were not built to be daily drivers....
Very nice! I love that 55.
When I was younger I never cared for Model "A" Roadster pickups built as a "T" bucket. Now I'd love to have one. This one is perfect. Lets see,...
When I was a kid there was a Vette in Hayward CA. by Southland mall, it had one of these front ends on it. It was always parked in the street. It...
I can buy AV gas at my local little airport here in Sedalia. You just can't puup it in a vehicle. I put it in 5 gallon gas cans. I haven't bought...
All the glass is the same on this Cadillac as all 59-60 flattop GM cars....
Ok, that's a bad dude right there.
I have an Edelbrock intake manifold that I didn't know what it fit, or what carbs it used. I sent Edelbrock a message, and they replied back with...
You might not have to cut the firewall. My buddy in high school had a 396 tunnel ram 4 spd. 55 chevy. We were just dumb broke kids that got some...
The simple days. This is when you could paint in your driveway, no overspray, simple single stage Lacquer. It would dry fast, and if you got a...
Looks good! I'd put a short water pump on that and short pulleys. That will make a big difference on fitment.
