History The Lellis '39

I'm surprised you didn't pick this one... being a Hawaii car.

Looks like a 40 Buick grille to me, which is similar to Chevy.

In regards to the car in the post: I dig the back window in the soft top, you don't see that treatment very often

 

Though I enjoy mild, as far as custom/ competitive, Doug Rice's '39!

 

Oh yeah — that’s my vote!

 

Stunning!
Have never seen that before, more pic’s?
I try Google.

3min. Later-

ohhh, lots to find!

 

Great choices here. Wasn't familiar with the Lellis car, it's a beauty.
Although it's a newer build, how might Pete Chapouris' purple, flamed '39 Ford convertible fit in here?

That maroon coupe is evil looking... I've tried to do that in plastic a couple of times

 

I remember seeing this on Hemmings a while back and being very intrigued. Here is the link. Im surprised its still active. Hemmings Find of the Day - 1939 Ford Model 18 | Hemmings

 

I really like channelled/sectioned '38-'40 Fords, Doug Rice coupe is just killer. I always preferred Jerry Moffatt convertible over Art Lellis convert, wish Lellis Ford would be restored to its '48 HRM version.

The maroon on that coupe is stunning.
