    I'll do my best to describe the car. I believe it's from CA. A highboy '28/29 on "A" rails. Bright Orange body, frame and steel 16" wheels with bias ply tires. Full hood, and a '28/29 grill shell with a devil head radiator cap makin' some sort of obscene gesture.... If memory serves it runs an Iron Duke for power. Tan canvas top. I'm not sure, but I think it was featured in Hot Rod Mechanix and the guy drives the car ALOT. It's been a hot rod for a LONG time.

    We're lookin' to build a similar car and I can't find the magazine article or pictures of it anywhere..... any of you guys know the car? Stitch

    Hey Steve... I'm certain that's the right car. His name really rings a bell... You should see the mess of magazines in my attic I've gone through looking!!! Any pix you have would be cool! Thanks
