I remember when I was 12 and saw Fred Steeles 32 for the first time in a magazine. It was almost as exciting as seeing Annette on the Mouseketeers..................almost. Don
I like them Channelled, but you Can overdoo it. The first one is a litle to low for me. But the is something odd about the boggie car, that turns me on again! More pictures, Please! I always had a thing for this car: It's known as Roland Rod or Roland Larsson's 32. It's still around, it's on kustomrama. Build In sweden: http://www.martsrods.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/leif/leif.htm http://www.kustomrama.com/index.php?title=Roland_Larsson's_1932_Ford Keep em comming!
John! It is good to see the old 40 is in good company, she is used to being around channeled company.
One of my favorite styles! Here are a few early and current pics of my rides, except for the gold 40 which is in now in Ausralia as shown in an earlier thread. The early shot of my blue 3 window is approx 1956 Early build photo of the gold 40 is not known B&W pics of the Cockroach build is from the early 60's, the shot where the guys are tipping the car to see the chrome undercarriage is from the 70's (Thanks to Nick32vic!) My red 3 window photo is from the cover shot from 75 The B&W build shot of the Mystery Merc is approx 1954 The B&W of the Rebel 40 is from 1949 with the original builder and a still shot of the same car from 'Rebel without a Cause' before the chicken race scene.
My favorite '32s of all time... Bob "gump" Andrews 5 window, wish I could find more pics... And an unknown roadster (to me at least)..
I am absolutely stunned and amazed that a channeled car thread has gone 6 pages without Griepsma's car...
