I believe Andy’s wife is Sue, don’t know about the daughter.
The “Ohio Flames” guy. Always liked his work. Great look, and he wasn’t concerned about both sides being mirror images. And that is not a knock on...
So you want it to look like a race car. Pretty sure the early slicks were 16”, so OK there. What are you going to do about a tire?
That yellow 32 RPU sure looks interesting. Any more pics?
I thought Duane Ong drove the car and Ray Gallagher owned it. I was at DD many times in the 67 to 72 time frame. Those “house” Funny Cars were a...
Gotta say I’m really enjoying this thread. When I was a kid in the ‘60’s custom Corvettes were super cool. 6 taillights, flared fenders, side...
One time would have been enough
I had 8 of the first 16, kept them all these years. All were in “played with” condition. I started to let my grandsons play with them, but some...
I don’t know what car it is from, but I like when girls hold their boobs like that.
Correct that is Kendall’s T. The first version. Later it got lengthened and ran wires up front. The big flat area inside is the gas tank. So your...
Man, where is Jim Bouchard? His car is definitely a hot rod.
That 32 Vicky Tub looks pretty nice, but not with those T-bucket headers.
Pics and more info needed
Oldsmobiles had the starter on driver side, and although the BOP trans has a different mounting area, the bottom was the same, or sure looked like...
On the front-to-backs I remember seeing sprockets with a double roller chain. But there were probably other ways too. On the side-by-sides, I...
Since we are correcting spelling, there are two T’s in Watts link
Yeah, I can put you in touch with Ted.
Kirk, I’ll tell Ted. He hosts a very informal get together every Thursday night. If the Suntan Sedan was beige, after Ted sold it something big...
Wishbones were split to make room for transmissions other than early Ford.
This will be sacrilege, I know, but the Holley mid-mount system is really nice. Does not attach to the heads. Definitely modern looking, but could...
To Moriarity’s point, lots of people feel they need to express their opinion, AND think everyone else needs to hear it.
It depends on the “oomph” the machine has and how thick the material is. If you use a straight edge on thin material, it should cut fast and leave...
Jeff Norwell, that ‘32 custom sedan is sooo much like the old AMT kit! Very cool!
A 6-foot tall cutie pie with her own hot rod? I like!
I know Matt, sure like his Buick. I’ll be there Thursday for set up, and either Friday or Saturday.
The term “frame swap” makes it sound like you think you can simply unbolt your body off the stock frame and bolt it onto the hot rodded frame. It...
That looks like a dealer bought wrecked cars at auction. Maybe the Biscuit was auctioned.
Shadow Rods ‘32 frame rails are 2 piece, split in the middle so they can be shipped easier. They include a gusset to weld in. They could be easily...
There sure were a lot of 26/7 T Buckets back in the day. Just don’t see them done that way much today.
(Sigh) If you have to ask…
Separate names with a comma.
