    Always see this roadster at LARS and it is the best looking A on A rails that I have ever seen. I believe pictures and back round history on this ride have been published but I cannot remember where I saw it. Does anyone know this roadster?

    I believe it was Rod & Custom after Pat Ganahl resurrected it. Pretty sure it has a Chevy II 4 cylinder. The guys name escapes me. I believe he also owns either a coupe or sedan.

    A combo feature with a yellow 30 highboy coupe? The one with the Devil rad cap. I was gonna guess Rod Action Magazine, but it really could have been Street Rodder or Rod & Custom just as easily. In the 80's?

    It is also featured in Australian street rodding from over 25 years ago - one is a build feature, the other the finished car

    That car is a prime example of plain ass simple very often being the way to build a hot rod.
    The squeeze bulb horn hides so well you have to figure out what it actually is.
