Yesterday's post on the Niekamp car started a pretty interesting conversation among pals here in Austin. I thought it might be interesting to continue it here. But first, let's set some boundaries... You have a three car garage. Each spot must be fil...

I dont know if the Speed Sport Roadster is old enough.

But if it is, these 3...

Anderson · 11-13-2008, 09:39 AM

Agreed on all three.

Well......The Neikamp is spot number one. Flynt in spot number two. I'd have a hard time picking between Spencer's and McGee's for spot number three. Probably still go with Spencer's because of my appreciation of all the fabrication.

It will be fun to see the alternatives to yours Ryan, I can't think of any that would top them - but someone may. This should be great.

1. Spencer
2. McGee/Scritchfield
3. McMullen

Yeah, they are all '32s- but that's a ton of history sitting there.

East coast guy picking three east coast hot rods... That's awesome.

JohnnyFast · 11-13-2008, 09:48 AM

I agree with all three of the boss's picks. However, I also favor cars that set trends such as Norm Grabowski's "T", Bo Jones' "T", and Ivo's "T".

**SUHRsc** · 11-13-2008, 09:51 AM

Duke Hallock's (any of the orginal hallock windshield cars before WWII)

Pete Henderson

Eddie Dye (right after whitey clayton built the nose, before cowl post removal)

SinisterCustom · 11-13-2008, 10:04 AM

My top 3......just at the moment.....
And yes, I know Zach's car wasn't built pre-65....I don't give a fuck, the car RULES and I want it!

Dreddybear · 11-13-2008, 10:34 AM

Tweedy Pie

Khougaz

Navarro

**JeffreyJames** · 11-13-2008, 10:39 AM

Veda Orr's '32

Barney Navarro Roadster

These picks can change daily, although Navarro's Roadster will remain.

G V Gordon · 11-13-2008, 10:41 AM

Dreddybear, Glad to see Tweedy Pie shown some love. One of my favorite Roth cars.

flatheadpete · 11-13-2008, 10:41 AM

Here....also The Navarro car is in there somewheres.

**BenD** · 11-13-2008, 10:49 AM

Neikamp
Mack
Baskerville

345window · 11-13-2008, 10:51 AM

McGee to go riding
Bernadini Bros to go racing
Koughaz because you gotta have one channeled.

Can we keep something out back behind the garage as a future $$ is no object?
