I'm currently working full pace on the next issue of Rolls & Pleats (#31)... it should be out in April. All our apologies for the delay, due to us moving house and having to buy a new apartment! I need your help identifying some cars, most of them from the California area. If you know the names of the owners, or if you know how to contact them, or if you have any kind of info on these cars (other than the make & year), please let me know! I may use these photos (or other photos of the same cars) in the magazine and need some info so that I can write well informed captions. Thanks, Jerry ROLLS & PLEATS #1 (Mooneyes) #2 (Mooneyes) #3 (Mooneyes) #4 (Mooneyes) #5 (Mooneyes) #6 (Mooneyes) #7 (Mooneyes) #8 (Mooneyes) #9 (Mooneyes)... The owner is named Tim Cicora I think... I have no other info. #10 (Hollywood Hot Rods Open House) #11 (Primer Nats) #12 (Primer Nats) #13 (Primer Nats) #14 (Bonneville) #15 (Bonneville) #16 (Bonneville) #17 (Billetproof California) (The photos are by Chris Casny, Chuck Vranas, Stephan Szantai, Gary Willoughby) On top of all these shows, the next issue will also cover the GNRS & Suede Palace, the Throttlers' show, the Jalopyrama in Maryland, the Alter Boys' show and the big Mooneyes show in Yokohama, Japan.

Hi Jerry, #8, the blue 32, was featured in Dec 06 Rod & Custom, and they said at the time it was built and owned by Tom Leonardo. Runs 327 Chevy, Offenhauser manifold, clear spark plug leads, Muncie 4-speed, 57 Ford 9", boxed 32 chassis linked by 34 rear end and Model A front crossmember. '40 Ford brakes, 15 x 5 and 15 x 7 wheels. he apparently owned the body since 1974, 2 1/2" chop, filled roof with fake top. Hope this helps.
The green, flathead powered, 1950 Ford Sedan (#17) is owned by Dave Aguilar from Pittsburg, CA. This is also the first attempt at painting a car by Dave and his Dad!
