  26. My stepdad was Tommy Ivo's agent and had Tommy give me a ride in his "T" when was 13. It was quite a thrill for a young kid.

  28. Our (Hemi-powered) Deuce 5wd Coupe spent its first nine years in its original paint or in black primer:

    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1954 - North Dakota (as purchased for $40).jpg
    1954 - North Dakota
    As purchased (less its 4-banger engine) from original owner for $40


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1955 - North Dakota.jpg
    1955 - North Dakota
    Channeled (6" in front, 8+" in rear)


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1957 - North Dakota.jpg
    1957 - North Dakota
    Chopped 2.5" ... now in black primer


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1958 - 4th NHRA Nats in OKC, Oklahoma.jpg
    1958 - OKC, Oklahoma
    At the 4th Annual NHRA National Championship Drag Races


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1963 - Fremont, California.jpg
    1963 - Fremont, California
    Me (age 2) "driving"
    NOTE: We moved to California in December of '62


    ... but has been painted Cadillac "Mandan Red":

    1955 & 1956 Cadillac Mandan Red.jpg
    ... ever since:

    The HEMI32 Coupe - late 1963 or early 1964 - Fremont, California.jpg
    late 1963 or early 1964 - Fremont, California
    Molded & bobbed Model A rear fenders, Hagemann aluminum hood, and "Mandan Red" lacquer by Art Billings
    NOTE: The color in this photograph has really deteriorated over the years ...
    "Mandan Red" is not a pinkish (magenta) nor an orangey red ...but rather more of a maroonish red



    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1969 - Fremont, California.jpg
    1969 - Fremont, California
    All polished up ... heading to the 3rd Annual Andy's Picnic
    NOTE: This Kodachrome slide more accurately depicts the actual "Mandan Red" lacquer paint


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 1973 - 25th GNRS in Oakland, California.jpg
    1973 - Oakland, California
    Freshly repainted (still in "Mandan Red" lacquer) for the 25th Annual GNRS


    The HEMI32 Coupe - 2006 - Pleasanton, California.JPG
    2006 - Pleasanton, California
    With its third "Mandan Red" paint job (done circa 1978-79 in enamel)
