Features Channelled Hot Rods Pic Thread

Shit yea, thats right. that photo was from the Street Rodder article on his snub-nosed C cab truck, right? Brain fart...

 

I can only think of maybe three other poeple on this board that could correctly I.D. that photo! What the hell is wrong with us?

 

So the paint is Omni MDX 4455 GM light teal poly

 

That is an awsome color Devin! Damn close to what I'm looking for for a Triumph bike i'm working on...

 

Haha, 2 days ago I scour the web for pictures of lo-boy deuces... and here they ALL are in one place. Viva la HAMB!

 

BTW, can anyone ID the rear tires on this one??? Thanks.

 

Old Hot Rod .....

​

 

X3, like Frank said, it really kinda reminds you of a lot of those late fifties colors like Regal Turquoise or Bahama Blue. Good choice.

 

diamond backs

 

Wow! Now that looks like a blast to tear around in!
Are my eyes deceiving me or is that a cut down 5 window?

 

5w or a sport coupe..It is wide at the A pillars, but can't be a 3w or a cabriolet, as those 2 did not have a bead on either side of the decklid.

 

It started life as a 5W Coupe and was modified somewhere in the late 50's or early 60's in Michigan.

 

That just has the "look' for me...I'm liking that a whole lot!
Any idea where I can find more pictures of it?
Always been a sucker for the east coast style of Hot Rod.

 

I love channelled HotRods..........





Channel over drag frame...

 

Somehow I missed this before... I agree...




Here are a couple shots of my 33 without the top...

 

Oh yea! Thast ONE time that I think the second owner actually improved on what the original builder did. The changes Granatelli did MADE that car, IMO.

Interesting hood treatment on the DCB Coupe.

The Arnett/Granatelli/Couch coupe is chopped/sectioned/shortened...but channeled???

 

Yes, that is Jake's coupe at Ty-Rods but that's Brett sitting in it.

 

Thanks for the kind words fellas!

I blew that one big time! I meant this car that was in post #173...

 

car i'm building for a guy. he didn't wanna spring to have me z cut the hood sides. but it would look even cooler if he did. 4 inch channel to bottom of frame

 

Hilborn 2 port. The car was famous in its day, both as a Nationals competitor and magazine cover car. You can find a little more about it in the following thread: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=4188174
