Hi I am trying to find history on this ex drag car. It was uncovered in the Detroit area this summer. What I was told, it had the same owner for 40+ years and it was covered in a barn for the last 20+ years. It was purchased from the original owners widow. Any help would be appreciated. Im getting questions on the truck in the background so theres a couple pic's..it's called the B Line Special,it's a rat project that got away from me and it has 100's of handmade pieces ..it's going to be in most of the old school mags,Rod and Custom did a feature on it and it should out in a couple months
That is a once in a lifetime find for most hot rodders. What a cool part of hot rod history to own and care for. Thanks for posting here so we all can see. Steve
heck yeah! there was a old crank-start car (no idea what it was) sitting in a barn close to where i live when i was little that i always use to play on, and here recently it sold for more than 20,000.... so it must have been important.... i would love to still have it around! Killer find!
i wondered where i left it now i want it back killer find some one has to know some history on if jeffrey
did them lemans..... judging by the wheels....55 chev style or later 10 or 12 bolt...? maybe chuck or rudy will know of the car.....brandon
Not another one of those damm 32s. There everywere. I think im going to throw my away . There just everywere.....
Well congratulations! I figured Thom or Dan would have mentioned it to me, but I guess it's been a week or so since I talked to either.... What are your plans?
WOW, I need to start checking barns....... Congrats... That is pretty cool. I saw that too. I bet she came down hard with a pivot point like that.... Can we say butt jacking...
No help here but looking at how the exhaust runs off the dump tubes/cutouts I'd say it might have seen a little street time... CC
