    Can anyone tell me what issues of StreetRodder this build is in? I've been trying to find it. I read part of it online once but can't seem to find it again. I have their 394 buI'll they did back in 2000 and a couple issues in mid 2004 when they started a rocket build but that one seems to get dropped. Not sure if this is the one from then or not.

    The gentlman pictured with the potvin olds on the 1st page is Wayne Arteaga from St. Louis area. Legend around here. We lost him several years ago, sadly.
     
  22. This was the 324 for my '36, but I scrapped that idea. Going in my '34 now.

  23. Ed Roth was planning on using two '50s Rocket engines in Mysterion before Phord gave him a couple brand new Thunderbird 390s for the car.
