Before and almost ready for the street after.......

 

Don't know. That's what was on it when I got it. The body was supposed to be from Arizona ( I bought it in Indiana ). I figured it was from The Phoenix area, but after reading "Rodder's Journal" a few issues ago when there was an article about Roger McClusky and he said that the drag cars he built he called "stump pullers", that was what was on the doors of my car. So that made me think that it was from the Tuscon area. That's all I know, but I would like to know more.

 

I did the build on this '30 Chevy, 4 door Special for my Pop's 3 years ago,...........I REALLY love MY '34 "kit car" !!

 

still a work in progress. recently spun a bearing in the engine. putting a new one in as we speak. post pics of finished engine soon. -DVZ
