    I have been trying to find white running board rubber covers for my '39 ever since I saw this car.

    Yet another perfect coupe.Straightforward,simple elegance at its best.Simplicity is often harder than complex,but it stands the test of time.

    A classic for sure, this car should be an iconic example of a traditional full fender duece coupe hot rod.

    it wasn't on the cover because they thought black cars on the cover do not sell magazines.

    Man, If it was my car, I would put it back *exactly* the way it was in 1954... Hard to beat!

    Totally agree with Jive! Stance was perfect.

    I dont know if I would. I don't know when they were done, but it currently has the most perfectly bobbed 32 rear fenders I have EVER seen.

  12. ... sheez'. There should be a specific Dave Simard Jalopy Journal feature.

    All roads lead to Massachusetts ...

    "Art of the Hot Rod", a book by Ken Gross, has a chapter on Simard along with many others. I think the
    coupe in the book is the one shown. A beauty.
