Hot Rods The 60 year history of a little California Hot Rod

What did I say, Larry!................Rand Man, will be looking for your build thread!

 

Yes, the rpu is gone...but I have a brand new toy...a '32 Ford pickup

 

And now back to 3 windows. JW

 

Yes a nice pick up with fugly wheels. Lol

 

fugly wheels won't be on there long

 

It's Flippin Larry now.

 

Please say you are keeping the side mirror. JW

 

Are those 16 in. General Jumbos, if so l am interested, P M me.

 

they are not general jumbos frank...they're clark mfg. 16's

 

Ne

Never heard if them send me some pictures

 

Of course he is, it goes with the headlights...

 

And the silly looking horn too

 

I was just thinking of Larry today, and the RPU. I did buy a set of dadgum 32 frame rails for it.

I have the seat out of Larry's truck. It'll get used proudly in my T sedan hot rod.

 

This RPU project is for sale. Including new 32 frame rails. I love it but will never finish it. Larry’s memory deserves to have a a better caretaker get this on the road.

 

This car is for sale in the HAMB classifieds before I put it up for bid on an auction site. Please don’t tell me it is “sold” then fall off the map.

 

Read the whole deal, enjoyed the banter by some of the legendary hambers, and the history. I think that rpu was built 15 different ways, and it is still in pieces.

 

Larry was a much better story teller than me.

 

Rand Man,
Thanks for posting that you are going to pass it along on this thread because I, like others, had missed the thread before and just like daylate I read through the whole thread and enjoyed following the comments and banter and other good BS that makes the HAMB a great place; especially from those that are no longer with us.
Thanks again,
AL

 

I have a deposit fellas. Looks like it’s going to a good home. Expect to see more about it on the HAMB.

 

Well, its a great story anyhow!-----Going to the NSRA Nats in Tulsa in 1973, I just might have seen the "T" RPU in its glory.

 

Now that’s a story! I still have parts that came from Larry. Not junk, he had some neat stuff. He and I had an interest in using WWII aircraft parts on hot rods...later.

 

Let me know where it go's please. I road a lot of miles in that car with the original owner back it the day.

 

Moved again!

@dmar836, I heard you started a new build thread. What’s the thread title?

 

And be warned: I’ve never sold a car I don’t want back ha, ha.
