    My previous car 39 Deluxe Ford Coupe was on the cover of Street Scene Magazine after the 85 or 86 Street Rod Nationals in St Paul, MN. It was with a bunch of us from Nebraska that were all parked together. I did not save the magazine, and still regret that. Myh current car was pictured inside of Rod and Custom Magazine in a feature article about the NSRA Mid America Nationals in Springfield, MO a ciuple of years ago. This time I did save a copy of that issue

    Yeah, I couldn't believe it either. Had to drive this miserable little turd all the way from Michigan to sunny California to get on. ( Power Tour '01) Actually fooled many people that thought it was an old barn find. This was before the advent of the rat rod. ( funny. I never thought of it as that) Gotta thank Frieburger for following me and taking all the pictures. Thanx for the memories guys........... Norm

  4. This has to be the big winner......So kool to have your grandfather & his car on the front of Hot Rod. It just will never get any better than that.
    I like that you still have the car also.

    Not mine, but i got to build the Merc and the 32 pickup in the back ground..The other one is a Trike my pop built back in August of 71. 41 years to the month later, the Merc I built appeared on Rod & Custom...I thought that was pretty cool..

    All my personal cars would never have a chance for a cover... they all look like shit... :rolleyes:

  19. My O/T 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 was on the cover of the October 1985 Car Craft magazine, with three other cars and one truck. The pic was taken at the CC Street Machine Nats in St Louis, MO, at the old Gateway Dragstrip. If I can get it to upload, I'll post it.
