    Always loved his coupe, thanks for showing that his prior roadster was pretty much the cats nuts as well.

    Beautiful car, if the belt line at the hood could have dropped just a bit in the front it would be the cats butt. Very talented for such a young man. Nothing like passion, drive, and determination. Unfortunately, I like to start off slow and then taper off!

    29 roadsters are sweet but I wouldn't fit in there with KY and a shoehorn, especially with that deep recessed wheel.
     
  6. His coupe is my favorite '32! That roadster is tits too!
     
  7. In the late 50's Lloyd teamed up with George Barris to produce and manage some southern California car shows.

    He had good taste, I met him a few years back at the GNRS in Pomona. I had been friends with some of his family for many years and didn't know it till I met him at the show.
