    This is cool. That's my father in a 1956 issue of Rodding and Restyling magazine. Here's a pic after he painted it in '57

    Mark:
    I ship a great deal of old racing decals to Sweden, Denmark and Australia. There is a car magazine called "Gasoline Magazine" That is very popular in Denmark and Sweden that did a write up a while back on my business and after that I got real busy.

    That's my Uncle Harry's ride. Here's another pic next to Dad's coupe, before he chopped it.

    My father's 31 coupster from early 60s. East Coast channel, square roll bar. Dragged this in Miami, FL. Lost track of it many many years ago and still looking for it.

  8. A few pics of the old man's 34, these must be late 60's, early 70's. He was obviously a fan of the east coast style.

    Busy rebuilding this car, gonna make a highboy coupe out of it FullSizeRender (005).jpg FullSizeRender (3).jpg FullSizeRender (2).jpg FullSizeRender (008).jpg

    This is my neighbor, Paul Gangi, at 15 working on his first 32 around 1954 in Massachusetts. He channeled it 6" if I remember what he said correctly. This is the guy that comes over and gives me help, pointers, and history lessons as my build reminds me of things.

    Sebastian Rubbo (sp) 3rd from left drove this car all over and was a fixture at any north east rod run. This was/is a perfect HAMB hot rod. On the far right I think is Rene Archambeau who had a 41 Ford coupe and then a 39 Merc. conv.
