  1. Umm, no...look closer - that's a belt driven supercharger - probably a McCulloch or Paxton - see the belt?

    Would be great to clear the leaves in the fall...:D...The Sound must have been Beethoven's 5th to ones Hotrod Ears Oh Yeah...and Flat Paint...this is why shiny is a choice...

    Coupe was the Work of Joe Tucci late 50s, early 1960s...

    :rolleyes:...this got shunned even though there may in fact a vintage channeled Hotrod beneath a few not so desirable details like the mirrors, ford badges and side markers...

    Anybody know if there is a period survivor beneath it? New Jersey plates and obviously across the pond now...

    :rolleyes:...just about another 1/4" and we'll call it done...:D...and let's make it rear engined to make it different eh!! Is this the beginnings of the Chrisman Coupe?

    @jnaki, I noticed you have shared a fair bit about George Cerny...do you know if this is the same fella in this vintage pic and if yes do you know anything about this Hotrod?

    :rolleyes:...What happened to this Hotrod...it was acquired by a Hamber, then said it was up for sale and then...?

    This was a heavily channelled 33 and the angle of hood highlights the issue with the grill causing issues with ground clearance...the difficulty in chopping a 33/34 probably had a influence on the easier just leave it up near OEM or it just didn't really matter...looks don't win races but that aside this has some nice angles...

    Where is it now...:oops:

    :rolleyes:...I was staring at this jawdropper of a unique Hotrod 'The Bluebird' featured here numerous times and noticed its cowl is pretty heavily reworked between the hood and side hood panels...I believe it was an altered and suspect the setback played a role in that...this Hotrod has survived but has had the as many times is said unfortunately around here had the Ugly cut off...:oops:

    :rolleyes:...a dandy owned by Harry Nix...Grand Island 1959 shared by Hamber @creams many moons ago...he lived what many of us revere and live in inspiration...that again is one of the rewards of being a Hamber...interacting with and gleaning from what they experienced...beyond cool...I hope you are still bopping Creams and thanks for sharing the good times...

    Who is Creams you ask...

    It's pretty funny, three different rods in quick succession! I'm wondering what the fenders started life as...
