    Picture was taken in 1963 at the corner of Hwy 99 and Clinton Ave, the car here has fenders and he was or still is an Bay Area Roadster member.

    I will do some digging. I forgot to ad that the photo was from Fresno at the Motor Lodge Motel. Matter of fact that same pool me and my brothers would sneak in and swim and get kicked out because it was at a motel....we lived one block away in the late sixties at Clinton and Marks ave in a trailer park....it must have been something in the water because I am a sick man to this day.

    That car is bad-***.
     
  14. Say Royalshifter. I have an old bubblegum card with a very similar car on it. The bed is shorter and the upholstery seems to be different as well - but there sure are similarities! The unfortunate thing is that there is no owner's name on the card.

    "Unable to find a suitable Model "T" boddy, the owner made this imitation body from fibergl***. For go-power, a 334 cubic inch Olds engine was chosen and added to this were high dome pistons and 6 carbs. Sealed headlights and hydraulic brakes were added for safety."

  15. I'll answer my own question now after looking more closely. The rod on the gum card is an earlier vintage.. '23? The car that started the thread has the later cowl. :eek: But, if you're looking for similar - there you go! :D
