Hot Rods My new project!! Picked up a Deuce Coupe this weekend!!

I bought this lil deuce this weekend.. The guy owned it for about 20 years.. He never really drove it much, said it was built in the 70's and they used to bring it to the dragstrip.. it had a 427 in it but this guy dropped in a 283. Its an all steel car and everything under all of that shag is really nice.. My plans are to ditch the sweet chassis and put it back on a 32 chassis with a 331 cadillac i have. I got a hell of a deal and drove it home.

any one have any pics of 3 windows with cadillacs in them??

 

Great score,,,congrats all it needs is a 32 frame and a little TLC,,, HRP

 

Great score, I assume that its the "craigs list 3 window" that was posted a few days ago ?

 

Congrats on picking up a 32!

 

Yeah, that's a 70's build looks like other then the 80's tub job. Love the red shag! great score, hope besides the duece chassis you plan on "un" tubbing it as well.

 

You scored big time! Congrats!!!!

 

Gotta love the square headlights, front shock mounts and coilovers!

 

Great find !,. congratulations !

 

Congrats Bobby!!!!!!! that is so awesome.....finally a super guy gets a great find!!!! Awesome!!!

 

Oh man, great score!!! the red shag is fantastic!!!!!!!

Glad to hear youre swapping chassis, that drag link is about as frightening as the firewall!!!

 

Very nice !

 

Nice score!

 

square headlights ! Holy shit, please save it!

 

But keep the shock mount/light stands! Hahaha!
Glad you saved this from more people with bad taste.

 

You lucky bastard! I wonder how much a "hell of a deal" was? Anyway great score and good luck with your plans.

 

Yes, It was on craigslist, 10 mins from my house.. The owner was a real nice guy....but did not have a clue about the car, he told me it was chopped 5"....hmmm... he also said it was channeled.. i cant figure that one out either, the price in the ad was a great deal... and i haggled him down a whole bunch... Yes, i plan on putting the stock firewall back on it, "un tubbing" it and putting it on the stock chassis, I have a done 331 Cadi with an edmunds 2x2 and a chrome dropped and drilled heavy axle waiting for it.

 

I hate you





Nice find I'm jealous

 

I could live with the headlights if the body on my Deuce was that Nice...
Great find!

 

That is a sweet body.

 

nice car but whats up with that sunroof OH MY GOD !!!!

 

Body sure does look real nice for the cheap price it was listed at.



...and you HAD to tell us you DROVE it home

 

To be carpetly correct, that is Sculptured Shag not just plain old Shag.

 

Are you planing to build it as a hiboy or full fendered? HRP

 

You suck...

 

Shit, im not up to date on my Shag Lingo.. Ill send ya some if you want it. haha

thats a plexiglass roof insert... luckly they didnt cut any of the metal around the insert, just glued that plexi in there

 

holy shit...

 

...are you serious

 

I wanna put them on my RPU build!!. Dang cool man

 

Yes! HRP

 

If you are a Deuce owner ...
You really need to learn how to correctly spell Deuce ...

D E U C E ...

And congratulations ...
But I must warn you ...
It is a sickness ...
