Projects I Just Bought a Hot Rod Model A Roadster That Was Built In 1959...

Discussion in 'Traditional Hot Rods' started by cactus1, Jun 7, 2017.

  1. So this is cool! I found out via Instagram the other day that the BB made the 2019 Hot Rod Hill Climb calendar (along with a lot of other bitchin’ cars!)

    Go here to get one and support a great event put on by great folks!

    I just found this thread after joining HAMB a couple of weeks ago.

    Such a great car, I love the 303 Olds engine (any Olds engine actually). Good work keeping it as it was.

    Lanny sent some pics over that his sister found in their mother’s stuff.

    This is Lanny and Sally at a Daryl Starbird show! The three-tiered fountain at the front is full of bachelor buttons!

    I’ve mentioned before that he used to flat tow the car to shows behind his ‘57 Ford. I have the tow bar.

    Such a great day that was!! Another Epic year at The HRHC and Scotty does such a great job of capturing and writing about the action.
    Here's a shot of the BB that I took bright and early in the staging lanes before it made it's debut run up the hill. Is it just me or does it look like it's amped up and ready to take on the hill!!
    When you walk up to the BB, you can just feel the history and coolness coming off it. I just love that little roadster of yours Mike...GREAT JOB!!!

  26. Just to keep this thread updated and for those who don’t follow along on Instagram, the good folks at Hop Up magazine included this photo my wife took (the day we got the BB running) in their current issue! I made sure @Marcy got her name spelled right, ha! (And yes Marcy I know her pictures are better than mine! ;):D) E9F1DB3F-AEFF-4177-81FA-436F90F7C67E.jpeg

    I'm seeing more splash aprons on fenderless or bobbed rods... was that the poor man's deuce rails of years gone by, just a pain to loosen the body bolts to slide them out or a styling fad ? ...
