Larry, Gary, Neil's son, was and I think still is into VW modification. I think Neil had input into Gary's passion. Porsche, which is owned by...

As far as we know, those are the only photos we have. I'm glad you like them. We had a copy of the Clymer book but don't know where it is at...
[IMG] Gee, this looks reminiscent of my mom's Lincoln. [IMG]
FYI, I've updated several pages on my website; including Peterson Motorama and the '54 Mexican Road Race. Still more to come. Mary Ellen...
Check out the March 2009 issue of Hot Rod. My mother couldn't believe it when she saw the Lincoln amongst all the rat rods at a show. It's the...
Does anyone have a list of the entrants for the 53-55 Motoramas?
Could you please re-post the photos. Thanks, Mary Ellen
That is one gorgeous car!!
I stumbled across this thread and have just finished reading everyone's input on these beautiful cars. I remember going with my mother to the a...
Boy, this brings back memories from the 50s and 60s. We participated in several Hare and Hound Rallys (as we called them). Rallys were big in...
Last week my mother and I were in San Luis Obispo (Calif) checking on the design for the sides of her new Escape (she just can't leave any of her...

Please see if you can find this car. I know my mother would love to see it. Since she only lives down the road from SLO and it would be an...
Thought some of you Valley Custom fans would appreciate these photos of Tad Hirari's 1950 Ford Del Mar custom. I was going through some old...
Those spotlights were NOT put on the car until after it was sold in 1962. I hope they will be removed as they do not work with the lines of the...

The original color was yellow with a black roof. The white would have been from stage 2 as it would have looked really bad to leave the underside...

My first thought was to reskin the door, though I think someone who really knows how to work metal could repair it. I have seen my late husband...
To clarify things, the boys at Valley Custom did not design the customizing of the Lincoln. My mother, Ina Mae Overman, designed it and Valley...

Don't be afraid to ask for credit where credit is due. My mother always said that Neil spent too much time bullshitting, leaving Clayton to do...
I guess the idea was a good enough to earn a shit load of throphies.
I've posted a few new photos on my web site, including the '55 T-Bird that Valley Custom did some of the work on. They frenched the headlights,...
