HAve had my 52 F1 since April of 68. I was 17 then. Many variations since then but is curently Chevy powered with Torsion front suspension. It may not be perfect but it 100% home built. 19 years of road rash on the paint but it still looks good from 20 feet......HAve another 52 in the works along with a chopped and channeled 31 Ford coupe.
