    nice find! I grew up rolling around in the back floorboard of a 35 5 window. always great to see a survivor like that! gotta love iowa cars.
     
  18. had to get out of the truck to get out my wallet , had on coveralls , reaching through the arm hole to get it out and the cop had his hand on his gun the whole time ready to jerk it out of the holster! ive seen to many episodes of cops to have tried him! it was raytown, missouri

    hey TiredIron - that photo is great!
    THANKS

    Dave - how much guilt would I have had if you would have taken a bullitt for fetching the car?

    oh man...............

    too much!

    I guess I should have been there with my great all american Opey looks-I would have put the cop at ease and laid on the Leave it To Beaver dialogue real thick..........
    and possibly throw in a Jedi Mind Trick "this is not the truck you are looking for"

    here is a 30 second clip of my car......
    Los Punk Rods are amazing.......
    I am glad to call them friends.
    They have always been cool to me and here is just another example.
    Out of the kindness of their hot rod hearts they have decided to get my new ride up and running.
    And here it is - running and driving.
    I have yet to even see it in person but the technology we have gives me the ability to see and hear the car........I cant wait to sit in it and smell it .....feel it - see if the car can throw my head back at all......
    Dave - the rest of the crew - you are amazing.......
    Viva Los Punk Rods!!!!!!

    I had no idea that was your '35. I need to pay more attention when I talk to you. Can't wait till Mayday. You gonna take some laps?
    My Model A wants a race....

  28. Ya know a saw that story awhile back and never paid attention to it really. Then while helping John this weekend at the swap meet he talked to you guys. I could tell it was pretty good news by the way he was talking with ya and he was totally getting very happy. He is all pumped and ready to drive it. Glad he will finally have a car to drive. You guys sound awesome for helping him out this way. Maybe we can get it part way home to him via World of Wheels here in March.
     
  29. Man, nice score.....what a time warp. Couldn't have picked a better tow vehicle for the barn find.....
