you should talk to piero aka evil hes been sifting through all of barris' photos for the book . he might have pics for you

 

Looks like the work of Bill Crowell of SF. Where did the George Barris built info come from?

 

Some samples of Bill Crowell's work, he was known for the 1/2 section.

FromR&C RON's Oakland Hot Rods#2......1955

Pretty sure is not a Barris Car.

 

BUMP!
I want to see where this goes.

 

it can only go down from here!

stock tailights, look more like 33 34 ford to me.

 

That’s got to be done by the same guy.
Iv seen one of them 32’s in updated form (yellow? Or candy red?)

 

Those are two different cars......or am I the only one to notice that, the one first shown is a mopar the other one is a 32 ford....Jim

 

he was'nt sayin it was the same car, just the same builder

 

Man - that's a cool body mod!

 

im just trying to get info because the guy is selling it for 8 grand ,

 

It is a 50s Hot Rod, I doubt Barris had anything to do with it more then likely it was customized by Bill Crowell as i stated above. $8000 is a reasonable price, especially for a unique rod like that.

 

8 grand........man, get on that if you like the style.
Keep bumping this post someone has to have some info on it.

 

My vote is that it was the guy who did the half-sectioned '32s also...and $17,000 in, let's say 1955, would be roughly $137,000 today...which I highly doubt anybody would have paid back then...it's kind of weird in my opinion...but who am I?

 

Anybody else wanna punch the guy in the video in the face for being an asshole tearing things apart ?

 

do my eyes deceive me or does that thing have a ghastly late model A-Arm front suspension?

...the horror...

neat car notwithstanding.

 

I was kind of wondering why he didn't unscrew the window molding and pull the door handle and window crank off before tearing into that. Also, why do we want to watch him drive around for fifteen minutes looking for cardboard. I am not trying to be a dick...just think it's kind of funny.

 

But no, I don't want to punch him.

 

'IF' the guy in the video has info on how much was spent on it, then he must have other info on it........like pics and who paid this amount of cash for the modifications!
As Jimmy has put those pics up it leaves me with little doubt the same guy did that car, but then the guy who found it says Barris did it......i think the guy was just making stuff up.
Again, this car would have been finished at one point and it would have stood out like dogs balls on a goldfish..........some pics/info will surface.

 

Just someone get it out of the hands of that dipshit!

Doc.

 

x2 i noticed that also it has A arms instead of an earlier drop axel , i think i can bump him down on the price a bit he said its negotiable, but to tell u guys the truth this car is not my cup of tea but if someone else is interested i can give you the guys info , just PM me

 

Get the car outa the hands of that clown in video, hes a fuckin gripper.

 

That video was posted 9 months ago i put a post link on another site.Theres gotta be a reason why it ain't sold at that price,mind you the guy might still be ripping pieces off it so might not be a lot left !!

 

Whats a 'gripper'????

Someone must dig the style of this car!!!!!!!!

 

It might have been done by Solomon Barris ... the $17k mentioned is probably Israeli Shekels.

 

If you go ask George Barris...he will tell you he built it and if you believe him he will give you a Barris Crest to put on the fender. I cant stand George...Sam is probably turning over in his grave.

 

55chevr---agree totally. I live in TX and am orig. from NE--I know the smell of bullshit. This reeks.

 

It does look like a late model front suspension. I know for sure 33/34 Plymouths had a crude independent not a straight axle. I myself am not a fan of the 1/2 section.. my 2 cents
