Features 1940's period correct hot rods

Love this T! When my T was down in Sacramento on loan to So-Cal S.S. this T was sitting right next to mine

12 forward Speeds, 6 in reverse

 

That would have been a sight to see with those two together! Its in Alabama, now. Long trip for a T!

 

Here's the T rpu when I saw it for sale at the Turlock Swap a few years ago...











We looked it over for hours. Lotsa neat stuff right there.

I hadn't noticed the one piece windshield until you posted those pics.

 

It was EPIC to say the least! We got into Sac at about 9:30 pm and met the guys at So-Cal's shop to unload the my T into the warehouse. When they opened the doors, there it was. We rolled my T in right next to it....it was awesome!

 

Keep it coming guys...need us some more pics

 

Barney navarro in line....what a sight!

 

Awesome video...I have to see this movie.

Barney's roadster is next to Fred Lobello's "Lady Bug" lakester Which I believe quite often had Johnny Vesco's 4-port Riley in it.

 

Oh man a Riley...wish I can hear that run

 

Note the bump on the top of the Jeep’s hood. The Jeep on page 18 of Hop Up Vol. 3 has a similar bump and is captioned:

My guess is the Jeep push truck might also have a V8.

If that's a Hemi under the hood of that T, it has to be sometime after the fall of 1950. Likewise, there is a mid-1950s GM product peeking out from behind the guy on the right.

Better pic





This is a cool shot

 

Hotrd 32, those are the neatest pix ever!

 

It's too bad most vintage footage had no sound.

 

That is a shame...I still want to hear a Riley running...anybody have any recent videos?

 

X's 1,000,000....very true..i hope the pictures always stay available

 

I joined the HAMB a year ago, and this thread was the reason. Best pics, best era. My car is a loose recreation. '32 V8 frame, '41 Merc, '39 trans, late '32 rear, adjustable spoke Kelseys, glass body, hope its worthy.

 

Looks good from up here!

 

That car is a wordless rebuttal of everyone who says only steel is real. Good stuff!

-Dave

 

its a recent build,built with some new parts and alot of old parts,,,,tried to keep it mid 1940's to late 1940's style as much as i could....

 

that looks great....love it!

 

I dont see a thing wrong with it.Looks good

 

It's worthy, all right...not overdone, generator, not alternater...nice wheels, well done.

 

This diamond just fuc%ing leaves me breathless and shaking my head in envy. I am obsessed with this.

 

What a great picture this is.

 

Understandable....that is one beutiful roadster!

 

Ahhhh, yes; timeless beauty.......

 

found this one on another thread...couldnt resist...it is 1939...but common!
