Mine is all black for the moment. It will probably be painted green later, but black is not so bad. Not the best pic and the roof looks a mile high, but that will be fixed
One of my favorite combinations, here's everything I have on photobucket with the exception of what I just collected from this thread: Sorry about the motorcycles and stockers - but I think they're all beautiful!
anyone got a pic of that (black on black; obviously) '33 full fendered 3-window coupe that was in american rodder about ten years ago? it didn't have black wheels, but i think it's the car that i would take if someone was going to give me any car in the world that i wanted.
Django, those 36 coupes are very cool. I second the notion of Black being an underlying definer of a "hot rod". I am doing my 27 roadster in black on black, and have plans on a deuce roadster down the road that will be black on black.
Here's two of my favorites. I've been snaging pix of black 33-34 three window highboy coupes off of the internet ever since I got mine.
Holey s*$t, did this dredge up some cool stuff or what, who woulda thunk, thanks for starting it Larry
Me too! Print it out and take it to your shop and demand that they just TRY and top this 5 window! hahahaha That pic makes me feel alot better about painting my motor red. Does anyone know who it belongs to or who built it?
This was my only tri black car BUT I'm thinking the 1927 ''S'' Benz will look good black Yes!! Those are Singapore plates!!
First time I saw it was at Pleasanton maybe seven years ago; at that time it belonged to Jim Busby. Really is a killer car.
Awesome, awesome thread. Does anyone have any info or other pictures of either of these two cars? Cris
...Cris...contact Don Dillard at his website: WWW.DONSHOTRODPAGE.NET for info on these cars...they were pulled from his website photos...Larry
Funny you should bring up these two. I have been looking at those cars from DRD57's photopage several times. Comparing those 2 A's is interesting. I guess many eyes see two identical cars. I my eyes they are quite far apart. Nice cars both of them, but the lower one with the burgundy interior is by far the best in my liking. Look at details: Spreader bar, headlights diplacement, Size of headlights, rake/no-rake of stanctions, tire size. Filled shell, bullnose decor on shell. II find the choise of details interesting. Would love to see the dash'es. Tread is fun......but I've already said that. Paul
