...Hamber @titus just became the owner of this vintage survivor. It was his friends,
pictured in better times above...may he rest in peace...

Thanks, @Stogy
I've been wanting to see an early style strip-down with wooden-spoked wheels.

 

I was looking at another Stude and did it have the oddest looking spoked rims...I think they were steel and kinda modern for the time...

Cool. Wood-grain those wheels and use 'em on a hot rod.
Then there's that fast Model A with the CNC-machined aluminum "wood" spoke wheels.
Sometimes I wonder if wooden spoke wheels would hold up to burnouts.
heeheeheehee...

...Captured by @40ragtopdown at a Show he recently attended...another of the Homebuilts inspired by the Mechanix Illustrated Magazine...I often think about the bad rap Hotrods were getting back in the post war era and often think these were a way to get a Hotrod experience without the stigma...

There were so many levels of build on these utilizing just about any available car parts and metals available to those at the time...

Twin 4:71s

 

I talked to Jerry about this car . He said it was one of his favorite cars to drive and he has many really nice hot rods.

 

I see it has some Essex in the mix...I'll bet they ride as good as the chassis that is underneath them...and no doubt significantly lighter...What was the motor under the hood...the Magazine builds were based on a mid 30s Ford if I'm not mistaken...

Thanks for chiming in 40...

 

That's beyond insane...the bigcars of the late 20s/30's have the scale to house wild engines combos like that as they had engines rivaling aircraft at the time...

 

Not sure next time I see him I'll ask what motor he's running.

 

Find out what chassis is under it too and when it was built...That sure has the look of an early 50s timeline...but crafty fellas could have found the mag in 59 or 62 and built it then too maybe with the Younguns...thanks very much...

 

Gotta be one of those GMC V-12s. I wonder if there are carbonators hidden in the blower cases. Quite a load for the little hoops on the front. You couldn't put a hood on the beast with the radiator 6 or 8 inches higher than the cowl (or on this one it might look right).

 

GMC twin six.

The grill shell moved forward makes it look nose heavy.
Hah... that's a joke, son.

...snapped by Hamber @garage2small at a trending Show Thread...

I believe that's a Deuce Boat-tail...don't know if they were a coachbuilt option back then but it would sure be nice with some vintage Hop up items that's for sure...that said looking at the dash I'd say it is a Hop up already...
​

 

...Absolutely Rivetting indeed...

Awesome inspired with some intense kick under the hood...shared recently here by a Hamber. I will share that link shortly...He is even open to a more period mill should the right stars align...

...That would be @Jay A Driggars...and a build Thread to boot...

SPEEDSTEROD

 

The yellow pickup above needs to have the wheels moved to the right spot, then maybe a change in wheels.

 

They are turned in but I believe your right about them being fwd proud a tad...the covers on the wheels look somewhat a nod to the moon discs...

 

Your onto something...way, way back in this Thread I shared an image from out west in Canada...pre WW2 and the fella had a racer that had a similar theme with the body and grill...tires and rims and exhaust were different through, mind you I believe you are aiming for a later period...I'll see if I can find it...

 

Some competition for @Drmalacarne

...Hamber @Shaun1162 is really moving along on his poncho powered heavily channeled Coupe...

He's certainly had some interesting projects...this latest one is pretty special and will have plenty of power to move it around quickly that's for sure...the goat before the goat...
