My old 55
Saw them off load the new 55 Chevy and Ford for the show rooms when I was 10. Have a large collection of the little rod and custom mags you could...

Great job! I like your detailed photos. Your very skilled. You should have a show on TV! Be looking for more pics.
Nice, I like it
Roothawg I'm west of you in El Reno.
I don't know anything, and my opinion means dink. Basicly build and drive what turns you on and don't worry about a classification. In the late...
Thanks for the comments. Used to really know the old Ford stuff, but time goes by and the brain gets smaller! We used to fix up and modify our old...
