...Vintage Hotrods have histories many are good news, bad news situations whatever way you slice it...Jim McGowans is one of those but man he done those Club Brothers Proud with finishing that Hotrod...

...such a cool bit of history...and quite the Looker at that...

Anybody know if those Louvers on the hood are chrome?

I see a flaming demon like head looking forward in those flames with the 2 angled white areas at the front of the hood being the eyes...I'm sure this has been noted and may have been exactly what Von Had in mind when he did them...

...it's truly interesting trying to make sense or should I say connect the racers that are called for what they historically are...now the Blue #82 is a restoration of one of 2 Estes racers by sources connected to the racer back in the day...awesome...



...Hey Clark!!...This I suspect is the blue one beautifully resurrected but the Grille is slightly different, perhaps something changed on that racer in its evolution or its just lighting and camera angle and Stogy's coke bottle bottom glasses......now the darker image I suspect is Car #2 as it shares similarities but many differences...

Not being critical in any way just looking deeper into the history while admiring the Louvers...

Looks great Jack, do you punch Louvers for Clients?...Hambers ask many times its regional requests

Thanks for Sharing @jackandeuces...

To all Louversmiths share your Craft it helps get your Service get noticed...

​

 

Stogy yes and hope I make a new friend...

 

I have louversmith envy. All I got is factory louvers. iui

 

You have come to a great Thread to do just that...

I share lots of Stockers as they are...and they certainly have style with function...mind you some are dummies such as 57 and 58 Chevys and even they make the cut as they are inspirational Louvers...
Thanks for your appreciation and sharing...nice Corvair 61...

...Well Hamber @jackandeuces popped by earlier to share his aft belly pan he was punching and fitting to a 33 or 34 Coupe...Here is one of his Time Warp Deuces looking ready for 1947...louvered accordingly...awesome...

So Jack you've been around Hotrods for a long time I like to refer to you fellas as veterans of what we revere here...you experienced what many of us can only imagine and recreate...nothing wrong with that either...I consider myself fortunate to experience and witness this Vintage Hotrod/Custom era at the Hamb and mingling with all of you young and old...and witnessing the diversity of these movements by region...

You have a great eye and hand for getting things right...it shows...thanks for sharing the greatness coming from your Shop...

Oh and I read you saw a local Hotrod in 54 at 12yrs old and 20 years later it was yours...a Deuce 3w to boot...not the first time I've read of such aligning of Stars...

Yes I am a Friend and I'd say there are many more here that think similarly...

Thanks For Sharing...

Hamber @1-SHOT is among many things a Louversmith...he highlights a method of louvering that's more than meets the eye in Hamber @AULIZ's Thread at the link below...I think I recall seeing it before...maybe right in this Thread......, a form of double Louvering creating a different flow pattern maybe right here in this Thread......pretty neat I say...

Gene Winfield and ?...the other fella reminds me of Gas Monkey Garage's Fabricator Aaron Kaufman but this guy in the pic with Gene is probably old enough to be his Grandfather...maybe I'm wrong...​
