Folks Of Interest Bruce drove it from L.A. to Deuce Days

^^^^^Larry, getting the windows in the revamped doors is just another "opportunity!"
An opportunity to show others how to do somethin'!
If you had, the Bones might have side windows, too!!
Just sayin'
Al

 

That's the problem I ran into!

 

I always wondered where 3wLarry got his name, now I know.
First time I`ve seen the car, one great looking little deuce coupe.

 

Larry was a 3window guy long before he built that beauty. HRP

 

no windows, no AC.................

 

A coupe that would fulfill anybody's dream. Can't describe perfection, but I know it when I see it. I've seen it here.

 

On Saturday (July 23th, 2016), @ForEverFour took this pic of the "Bitchin' 3-winder" during one of the Northwest Deuce Days Poker Run stops (near Brentwood Bay, BC):

One from Instagram for you

 

As a disclaimer I don't know how a 32 ford is set up, and I'm not even caring that there isn't any side windows but I'm curious how you could do it.

An access slot in the very top of the door to drop the glass down into the door with a little cover that gets weather stripping over it was my first thought.

Followed by the inner door skin having an access point which led me to...

A removable top half of the door skin with the glass and mech attached like a 41-8 ford Tudor has in back.

Sorry this is the only photo I have handy of one as I was tearing one of mine apart for clean up and new... Well everything. Held in place with three fat screws on each side. One side the holes are slotted vertical and the other side horizontal for adjustment. The bottom has three small screws that mate to a flange and the garnish molding goes on last. With a chopped car you wouldn't need a full depth run because you haven't a full depth window!

* top of the unit is to the right, those two bumps retain the garnish molding

Anyhow back to that shiney black car

 

This mechanism would also give you the roll back feature like a 34 coupe has I believe

 

hard to believe that a coupe that sold for big bucks doesn't have windows, why not just build a roadster with a cloth top?

 

no windows, no fenders, no bumpers. someone should finish that car.

 

It's a Hot Rod,who made a rule that they have to be finished,I really suspect Larry never intended to install glass in the pneumonia holes! HRP

 

Bruce is a card...At the 2010 L.A. Roadsters show, he was driving the Doane Spencer car out of the building, I was standing there, he stopped to say 'hi'...I asked "Where ya goin'?"
He answered (loudly enough for a small crowd of onlookers to hear)
"They thought it was ugly, I'm takin' it home..." I laughed, but the majority of the crowd took him serious.

 

Alright ,..... That's it !.... I am demanding you change your name to "1WLarry"

 

On Sunday (July 24th, 2016), @barebones32 took this shot of Bruce parking on the front lawn of "The Empress":

Also on Sunday (July 24th, 2016), @ForEverFour shot these digital images of the "Roller>Meyer>Kelley>Meyer" Deuce 3wd Coupe on the grounds of "The Empress" hotel:

​

 

Beautified by the adage, less is more. Screams hotrod

 

If anyone ever has a question about what a Hot Rod is; Look at this car!

 

Awesome! I have slide in windows on my Sedan, never use them, whenever I asked my wife if I should bring them along in case of rain, she says no, I don't like the windows, we're not made of shit or sugar, we're not going to melt.

I stopped asking.

 

Real Hot Rods are never really "done".

 

And as if I couldn't have anymore respect for Bruce Meyer!

 

I have to say that car is IT and my favorite hotrods of all time . I can't seem to get enough pictures of it. .The best part it's being driven don't get any better than that! Rulers!

 

OK ... then here's a couple pics of it parked in the host hotel garage:

Thank you

 

he's 70....and he still has all that hair ? man-o-man - nice to have an open window to let it all hang out and a deuce to do it in......thanks for sharing

 

Bruce went by us in this car during the poker run on Sat. That thing sounds as good as it looks going down the road and standing still. So cool that its driven.

 

Clover Point...

 

Cool ass car... but I think it needs a wing somewhere... front like a f1 car or rear like a Datona 'cause that thing looks like it can fly. I want one.

 

3wlarry,
Why did you sell that car!? Its perfect.
