A real Shelby Daytona coupe in the 1965 movie Redline 7000.

 

When I was younger I never cared for Model "A" Roadster pickups built as a "T" bucket. Now I'd love to have one. This one is perfect. Lets see, Brookville "A" Roadster pickup body, swapmeet bed cut down, swapmeet "A" grille shell, "A" frame with a title, new wheels and tires, of your choice of course, from Summit, or if you're lucky, from a swapmeet, a few parts from a Model "A" restoration site, easy to do interior, junkyard motor, tranny, and rearend of your choice. I see a fairly cheap to build Hotrod. If you can do your own work, I think $10,000.00 to $15,000.00 would build that car. Of course the price goes up with the more fancy stuff, or new stuff you want, as in chrome mostly. If your a good scrounger or know an older Model "A" guy, you might get lucky and score the body for half of the price of a repop one.

I had the pleasure of fixing the flywheel / ring gear with a "Dutchman" when Chris Carrier ( RIP ) owned this roadster.

 

Did he get his jacket from "Spike Jones" ?

 

Eddie Hill versus Don Garlits.

 

That was before Horsepower.

 

Dennie Millani and terrible Ted Gotelli ?

 

Very nicely done.
