Hot Rods Hot Rods in the Snow!

My Christmas Card from a few years back.

 

The car is long gone but I drove the wheels off, the quick change locker worked great!

 

Making the drive back from Utah to texas . Have seen more snow in 3 days than 30 years in Austin. Beautiful. Parked here outside Moab at the arches state park. Slack jawed beauty. 'Merika sure is amazing. Happy New Years all

 

This was the first time my 55 was in the snow in 32 years. I had to pull it out of the garage to fix the inlaws minivan. Overnight we had this snow/ice storm.

 

I just had some fun with my Studebaker in the front of my old barn. I have driven many hundred miles during winter time with A Model.

 

When we lived in Montana. Temp was somewhere below 0 . Fresh air heat doesn't offer much heat at this temp. I had just installed a new waterpump on the '51 Hudson and then took it for a spin.

Here's my FED this morning.

 

My 47 from a few years ago, Must have been very early in the winter from the look of the amount of snow. A 4x4 makes a much more enjoyable drive this time of year.



HAPPY NEW YEAR

Canuck

 

I hear the Sierras are getting pounded with snow. Three years ago I went across Donner pass when I went out to San Fran to pick up our '47. I've lived in SD, MT and now CO and I had never seen so much snow. Honestly can't believe I made it. One fellow at a gas station in Truckee thought I was nuts to be pulling a trailer in that mess. I just wish I had a camera with me on that trip.

 

Awesome picture!

 

here's Rocky's

 

I am not complaining!January 2nd and here is my roadster out today and the only snow is what is front of the 32
I know we will pay for this. For now this is the best I can do on this Thread.

 

Jack Greiner on Mt. Hood (Oregon) 1947, look close and you will see chains on the rear !

 

Thats an interesting photo. I'm pretty sure thats a 32 with the frame bobbed, tank removed sorta Model A style. Cool car (no pun intended). He is driving it too. Timeless look...Thanks

 

From last year, haven't had any snow yet.

 

That is the year I was born! What a cool car wow! Think about it, look at the top and rake. Talk about setting a style!

Marty, now that is a historic picture you posted! WOW!

 

What a great story! Thanks. Jack was one hell of a guy! Everyone on the HAMB should read this. I always think hot rodding really started later. (very late 40's) This is shows all the pioneers of the trade. Thanks Again!

 

He still is, one hell of a guy !!!!!!!!!!!

 

Sorry about that!
