Hot Rods Khougaz Roadster Chassis Pictures?

I figure since it is such an iconic car, and uses a relatively uncommon front axle set-up, a chassis photo would be useful.

Anyone out there have a photo of the car sans body? Chassis/front end specifically?

^^^That's a start!

Pictures of the front crossmember is really what I am after.

I am curious if the frame was notched? Arched increased? How was the spring in front adapted to the '32 frame?

 

Best I can find, axle behind spring

 

that is one bitchin car, a guy here in indiana used to own it. i walked up to it in the dark at a cruise nite one nite a few years ago, and about shit myself! wheres it at now? anybody?

 

Don't recall his name, IIRC the guy was a dentist from? Crown Point Indiana.

 

you are correct. his name will come to me.

 

last name is vanbuskirk.

 

Sold at auction a few years back, noted in an article in one of the rodding magazines. Mark VanBuskirk was the Indiana owner, pretty sure Dave Simard did the restoration.

 

I suppose I'm the only one who see's the lifting aerofoil on the front?

 

I saw it at Austin Speed shop back when Bob Bleed worked there..during Roundup..shit time flies !!!

 

Yes, it was restored by Dave Simard. I was at his shop in Leominster, Mass. a few times before and during the restoration. The roadster is a beauty to behold.

 

Normally channeled cars look out of proportion. This one is spot on. I drooled on it at Detroit Autorama one year.

 

i agree completly with flatheadpete, it is the best channeled car i have ever seen!
