Here's something from the things that almost were department. One of the qualities that really makes Hot Rod Deluxe magazine unique is the unseen archives that get published for the first time. Photos that hit the cutting room floor the first time around, and then get to be enjoyed years later. I was digging through my files of stories I've been assigned, written, and then never been published, and came across this photo of "Limey" Steve's '32. As it turned out this story did run in Street Rodder, but I thought it might be interesting for folks to see just how close this car actually came to making cover.
