    I know everyone is saying they got a barn find, but this is a true 60's Hot Rod that was built for a drag car but never used. Sat in a garage until 2009 and brought to Florida, then sat until now. The roll bar, slicks and 4-speed been removed and a turbo400 installed

    Car is a 31 tudor model A, that has a built 283ci duel quad motor, M22 4-speed, 10 Bolt rear. Chrome straight axel. 4-link with traditional steering. The interior sports a 60's custom style with chrome dash rail and chrome window moldings.

    Widows are tinted plexiglass. home made front and rear fenders, with a chrome front window visor trruely a 60's built car. body is the best 31 tudor that I've seen in the past 10 years, but the car needs a rebuild.

    I will be posting pictures as we rebuild.

    Wow. What a cool find. Love the old interior.
     
  23. That car makes me smile! Great find!
     
  24. Hey that's pretty cool! :cool:

    Although I've never seen M/T valve covers with no breather or oil cap holes in them or even a place for them.

    Has anyone else seen them before?

    I know that there can be a difference in the slash (M/T or M\T) but never seen this style before.

    I like 'em! :cool:
