    My dads 32 ford coupe is on the cover of the new street rodder magazine. He has never had a car in a magazine before even though he has some neat cars. Dale Moreau did a neat photo shoot. Neat to see a hot rod painted by its owner (in a barn) on the cover of street rodder magazine.A friend of my dads sayed why are you building a rat rod out of that 32 ford. Some people just dont get it I guess!

    Yes some people are stupid and think just because a car is built with old parts that it is a rat rod I told my dad not to answer the phone when he calls.

    Got mine in the mail yesterday...............when my wife came in from the mailbox she said: "look at the cool '32 on the cover"! ( I guess after being married to a hot rodder 36 yrs. she is starting to get it.) Your dad has every right to be proud.........*****in' car, congrats to him.:cool:
