That "Bad Ass Axle" Is off of a '37-8-9 Ford V8 60. That car in "the Lively Set" has a Dodge body, not a Ford T. And you guys call yourselves traditionals.

I did some digging when I got home from work.
The car I posted a picture of earlier is featured on page 70 and 71 of the March 1965 issue of Hot Rod. Here's a bit of information from the article: Built by Erv Campbell of Santa Ana, CA from a cut down 1922 Ford touring body and a shortened Model A pickup bed on a 1930 Model A frame. At that time it was Erv's sixth rod and reportedly took over 5,000 hours to complete -- the hardest part, according to the owner, was fabricating the headers for the 1957 347 cu. in. Pontiac motor. The trans was a 1956 Hydra-Matic and the rear a 1955 Pontiac suspended with an A spring. Wheelbase was 96" and it had a 1958 Ford truck steering box. Wheels were Americans front and rear shod with 4.00x15 Pirellis front and 9.00x16 Racemasters rear. This is pretty comprehensive information for car features of the day. |

So we got the "who" and the "when".
Now we need the "where". Where is the car 43 yrs later? If any forum can come up with the answer this one can.

You're eyes are ok, the driver's door doesn't open so no hinges that side.
