    :rolleyes:...Hamber @J.Ukrop has really ramped up a journey in Hotrod that brings him in contact with many of those with deep connections to the Good Ole Days proper...he also has pretty diverse appreciation in Hotrod...as many of the Hotrods that have been shared here turn up or have been through his focus on Hotrod...

    I will share just this pic of a Hotrod Speed Coupe that I'm sure will get feature coverage as he did meet a Hot Rodder that was the son of the Owner of the Coupe back in its heyday...

    Where is it now...maybe he knows now...how cool would that be...

    Anyways check out his adventures and more about this Coupe at the link above...

    :rolleyes:...When it feels right...Stop

    I'm gonna say this would be nice to have in the Hotrod Stable...I'd chrome the shell to match the Headlight rings...I'd be done...the fenders buffer the radials which are better than the average radial in period look...

    A real nice megamouse W motor in there it seems...different you bet...;)

    Need to get new glasses, read the word "Homoginized" as something completely different

    :rolleyes:...This reminds me of the Roaring Roadsters that wore many different faces with very little protection but they sure looked awesome...

    The fender looks like it's bracketed to the spindle.

    In the 60s here in Berdoo, there was a 34 coupe that had Olds flippers screwed on to the spindles in front. They didn't flip -- sorta eye-catching that way.

    That would be quite the illusion, the slide and glide...

    Yes that is exactly the case Stan... @Marty Strode shared a Hotrod with a similar setup...perhaps it's the same Coupe...It without a doubt probably reduced the stress on struts on backing plate only setups...

    :rolleyes:...here's another with Trailer fenders on the back...shared a few times within this Thread...

    I guess the Spindle mount would be an interesting challenge for a Mechanically inclined Rodder...

    :rolleyes:...This is one from @Marty Strode's collection I believe and it highlights the transition from Track to Street...It would be nice to see some other angles of it in either configuration...

    The Hotrod was owned by Jimmy Martin but built by someone who actually regained it after a period...I wonder if the painted and polished showworthy version was finished by the original builder after its stint as a Roaring Roadster?...

    Cool Cars and Square Roll Bars indeed...

    This has been shared a few times within the thread but it's time for a BTTT...It's known as The Puritan was built here in the US and has Fiat routes I believe...

    I notice a logo on the Cowl that resides on a Horn Ring I Identified the other day...I think it says Kidder with the graphic...

    I can hear the Driver chuckling as the Kidder takes the checkered Flag...again and again an and...:D

    :rolleyes:...Canadian Bacon and shared in a great Thread right here on this great Site...

    It was Hamber @231romona's purchased right out of Stratford, On.ca

    Anyways its certainly a Looker and I saw the hi top Roadster recently elsewhere...

    Hope these Hambers are well and still Hotrodding with their awesome rides...

    :rolleyes:...He took home the gold...this may be one of the Oddest Hotrods I've seen...It fits the Thread in it's no doubt sole existence and also is a reminder that when you give a brush to 10 people you will get 10 very diverse interpretations of whatever subject one might choose to cover...Conrad Richards was a Hotrodder and I'd really like to see what else he drummed up...

    81410309-2B57-46C9-A5AF-4C04EE06DAFC.jpeg

    :rolleyes:...He was a Canadian out in the Prairies and ran a body shop...he did another Hotrod I shared in this Thread...and many more...

    A246DBA7-F225-4A87-B3C0-0042EB7C1FE0.jpeg

    Quoted...

    "Forming the very first car club in Prince Albert he had many awards from car shows over the span of his lifetime. Known to all who were involved in shows and car restoration he was a legend in his own right. Being a "Ford" man was just a part of his DNA and his creative spirit lead to many unique and one of a kind creations."

    RIP Hotrodder...

    Conrad did appear here in a memorial Thread I just discovered and @anthony myrick did share the link to the Hotrod above...There were other Pics...yes he was a talent...there was an Appleby Series of Showpics probably a regional thing

    0_20211017_183229.jpg

    :rolleyes:...This is one of Con's Customs and while this Thread is a Hotrod Thread I thought it appropriate to help understand this mans capabilities and understanding of grace in Metal...

    https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/went-to-an-interesting-memorial-service.1234602/

    Additional thanks to Hambers @fargoguy and @tombstone for shared Images within this post...you were fortunate to have known this man...
