Hot Rods Tired of homogenized hotrods

I remember when this thread started and i was thinkin.
Yea, another excuse to post ugly and offtopic hotrods.
There are some of that but most are just great hotrods with its own twist.
Stogy, You sure are great to provide great pictures on photothreads.

 

Thanks @AndersF for your compliment and enjoying my contributions to @onekoolkat1950's thread. You and all the others also make it complete with your contributions.

I really enjoy searching out relevant stuff and have a deep appreciation for the Hamb and its people. There is much more to know, find, share and enjoy.

Yes it has been so far a very interesting journey of old and new. Creativity in Hotrodding with period trimmings is still evolving and there will always be an open door to present it here for those that care and or are curious to enjoy. Have a great weekend.

Just curious is that side exhaust?
See some blueing at front...were did the ideas for things come from?...
I am sure both Hot rod and Civilian Auto Engineering fed
off one another...
Just read article yes it is....my
query answered...

I do wonder...how many fellas crunched the
ole fuzzies gettin into these things...
or perhaps a charley horse
with your seating. I guess if a smiles on
all went well.
I must be getting old getting into the ole Sport coupe
is enough of a challenge...

Thats' one snappy dresser! Gary

 

The shots from back in the day are largely B&W and I believe it may have been quite a bit more visually spectacular back then than we imagine...This is of course a restored racer but perhaps the paint follows an original theme. Your right its a beauty...

Whose/which tires on this car? First I've seen em.

 

Thats a really good question all write ups I have seen and even zooming in shed no light on that...someone may chime in to clear that up. They are nice looking tires as in they mimick a bias look.

 

They look similar to Firestone 560's.

 

There may be write ups in a Rodders Journal, Hotrod or otherwise and that usually gets mention. They may even have European connections. That said you may be right...

 

Just a plug for some other threads with hotrods in various stages of finish but oodling with unique character some perhaps within the body of this thread...

I think this fits the bill different size however...

That looks like it, 7.50-16 in the back. Good looking tire and radial too. Unfortunately, for my app, P speed rated.

 

Too bad they are $1026.00 for two bigs and two littles, plus shipping, mounting and balancing......sure hope they don't have to be shaved!

 

Old man Bob from Missouri he built the Hot Rod and trailer.

 

Me thinks Bobs a pretty happy guy with those smart lookin machines. Does he still race that beauty? Any more pics of his racer Cdan? Does he have any back in the day stories with photos...Pass on our appreciation for his awesome rides and say hello to him for us. Thanks Cdan...

 

That is an awesome trailer. I've never seen that before.

 

i was thinking the same thing. i would love to see it being loaded.

He lived in Chicago most of his life around Midget race cars and Hot Rods and a friend of the Greek. The racer is something he drives on the street. He has some stories.
